01.01.2022 When you park in your driveway, but block the footpath or nature strip at the same time, you make it very difficult and unsafe for pedestrians. If the footpath ...is blocked, pedestrians have to step out onto the road to pass your parked car. Avoid a fine, park in your driveway, on your own property. Keep the nature strip and footpath clear for people walking, people with mobility scooters, prams, wheelchairs and visibility aids. The fines for blocking the footpath or nature strip vary: In a residential street - $272 fine In a School Zone - $349 fine + 2 demerit points See more
