I am voting against 'Stop within 10 metres of an intersection without traffic lights' fine in residential areas and reassess the necessity of a 10 meter limit and determine a more lenient penalty. The limit should be 5 metres.

It's not a very well known law.
It's only randomly policed. It comes across
As just a money grab.
If there were signs or markings on the gutter
It would be fine.
10 meters is ridiculous. That's the length of
2.5 cars ?

I have worked in Blakehurst for 12 years and have parked in front of a house on several different occasions, as have some of my co workers and other people employed in the area. Others who have been in the area longer have never heard of anyone being fined. My fine was $235. When I called the council and asked why have they now decided to patrol the area, they told me I was just unlucky. I told the resident who often parks outside her house that I was fine but she has not taken any notice of me and continues to park there but receives no infringement notice. Not happy at all............

Last month I had my car fined under this ridiculous rule. I was very wreckless and deserved the $206 fine because I only parked the vehicle 8.4 mtrs from the intersection. Thats ok people of the RTA and State Debt Recovery Office you can front up for the 1500 quid return flight from the UK for my court date.

I do not wish to end the "stop within 10 meteres of an intersection" law but would prefer if it were changed or looked into. Previously the rule was to leave a 7m distance from an intersection without traffic lights. The fine noted of $206 seems a bit too exorbitant and would do for a review. Thank you for considering.

There is one free parking area in Bondi. I have seen numerous cars parked within 10 metres of the intersection; there for days without recieving a fine. I only want a place to park that I don't have to pay through the nose for without a residential parking permit. I use company cars that change unpredicatably, therefore I can't have one specific residence permit. I also have to walk 500m to my home, and to make it worse, I now can not use an area that has been used by many WITHOUT FINES.

I am appalled by this unnecessary rule as well as the blatant revenue raising fine that comes with it. With 16.4 million cars on the road in Australia, a figure which has doubled since 1982, I fear that as our population grows, the amount of cars will only grow more and more and the abuse of this pointless law will grow with it. I cannot see the value in a $208 fine when the roads are only getting worse. Clearly the money is being misdirected elsewhere. The people will revolt.

Firstly, there should be a set standard, as the other corners at same intersections allow for vehicles to park approximately only a car-length away from the intersection.
Secondly, $206 is an excessive amount for a parking violation - it is not high-risk, for example speeding or running a red light, a simple $77 fine would "teach a lesson".
Thirdly, why send the fine in the post A WEEK LATER instead of placing it on the vehicle, same day? Especially when payment is required within 21 days?!

I parked my car on Middle St near Meeks Lane. Middle street is a wide street, and I left more than 1 big car space behind me till Meeks Street. I was surprised to get a parking ticket of $220 when I came back after 15 minutes. There are no standing or no parking signs around but they did not put any sign on this spot, looks a perfect parking spot without any trouble. I just found out that many people complainted about these spots, council got a lot of revenue on leaving these spots un-signed.

The 10m space requirement is unnecessary and hugely excessive, but not as much as the $206 penalty that accompanies it. If the road is umarked and there are no signposts, how is a driver supposed to know they are infringing on the law? If a driver parks in what seems a reasonable and safe manner without causing any obstruction and without contravening any no-parking signs, why should they be hammered with this obvious revenue raiser? are we all supposed to know every single tiny road legality?

The fine for this ridiculous law has now increased to $201. My house is 5 meters wide, so this stupid law takes up two houses. Unless you are driving a cemi-trailer 5 m is ample space. 10 meters results in 6-8 fewer car spots in a block of 10 houses. The impact on residence is obvious; the impact on businesses is also significant in a busy suburb like Newtown. My attempts to obtain off-street parking have been thwarted by another similarly ridiculous law. A little common sense please.

It is not very reasonable that a drive is only allowed to park his car 10 meters away intersection without traffic light. I suppose, turing for other drivers cannot be easily affected by parking near intersection.

The $201 fine is such a rip-off. at least there should be a sign or a line so people can be aware of it, right now it just seems to me that the council intentionally traps people into breaking the law. And the value of the fine is just ridiculous. It's not like we're gonna kill anybody if we stop within 10 meters of an intersection. Come on!

I parked in a t-section in a dead-end road, approx 3 metres away from the curb.

i did not obstruct anyones path or driveway. nor would parking there have made it hard for others to turn into the t-section which was a one-way street.

the 201 dollar fine is a ridiculous amount for this offense, considering there was no stop sign, i could have parked over the hour limit in a 2 hour parking spot but thought i would park what i thought was legal and walk the distance to work.

What makes this rule so pathetic is the incosistency of the fines being handed out. It could go a week or two weeks of parking in the "illegal zone" but then one particular day you get fined. If it is so dangerous to people that a car is parked here i would have thought the severity of the fine would have been matched by the consistency or your rangers enforcing their right to fine. But this isnt the case. Its absolute bullshit!

It is a short driveway giving access to Karuah Oval, Turramurra. Each time I have passed my infringment spot, another car has been parked there.
