Hi everyone
I was just wondering if the police are continuing to pull day trippers over on the M1 from Brisbane to the GC? especially on the weekend?
.
Thanks in advance.

Australians must avoid all non-essential domestic travel.

Unless you can afford the fine or are special and the laws don't apply to you.

They will be more focused on it on the weekend for sure, during the week not so much cos a lot of work commuters.

You're only allowed outside if you're doing a Maccas run

  Won't be easy. They're pretty large and fast.

    Nah trains are easy to catch. Just stick your leg out Monty Python style.

Allowed only if you do your winter skiing in Aspen or you are the owner of a media empire.

  Or play golf at mar a Lago.

View your local media. It will be big news when they open up the border. Until then, stay home.

  Is that the new border between Bris & GC they've been building while no one's allowed out?

why are you worried if it's essential travel?
oh, wait, it's not?

I like catching the train idea.

  What’s the difference between essential travel on a train or on a car?
  - Bargain80 on 25/04/2020 - 11:59
    
    one is sitting on a train and the other is sitting in a car.

Depends on how many people are in your car. If you’re alone, you can say that you’re visiting another person’s house, which is allowed in QLD.

Almost 0 change of getting pulled over, there are so many cars on the M1.
Lots of police presence, but if you're not doing anything illegal you won't get pulled over.
