Update: Local Traffic Only - Road Closed

I was offered a lower fine and no demerit points. Although tempting, I declined and was told to send my information and pictures in an email to determine if a trial would go ahead. Although the email was read more than once (I use a tracker for important emails), I didn't hear back. Then I got a not...

Re: Local Traffic Only - Road Closed

I also have a son in travel hockey. I obey all detours and go the correct speed limit through construction zon...
