In Australia, forgetting to buckle up is more expensive than just a little discomfort. The seatbelt fine typically ranges from about $300 to $400 AUD, depending on the state or territory. It’s not just the fine; you might also get demerit points slapped onto your licence, which can mess with your driving privileges.
Compliance is straightforward: wear your seatbelt, and save your wallet the hassle. If you’re shopping for a new or used car, make sure the seatbelt reminder systems are working—some modern cars even nag you until you comply.
