Vic curfew breakers face $5000 fine, while repeat offenders face $20,000 fine | Sky News Australia

Victorian residents face fines of $5000 if found in non-compliance with the state's new curfew and mask rules, while repeat offenders face fines of up to $20,000. Victoria Police yesterday issued 161 fines for non-compliance, 60 of which were issued for a failure to wear a mask.

Victoria's Chief Health Officer admitted a loophole in the standing orders allowed potentially positive COVID-19 cases to leave their homes for exercise as cases surged in the state. Brett Sutton said under new state of disaster rules, anyone who tested positive to the virus would be required to quarantine for a 14 day period without exception. The tighter restrictions followed revelations about 800 of 3,000 positive cases were not home when visited by Vic health authorities.

Refuse to pay the fines and clog up the courts for the next ten years. F/em

Absolutely disgraceful. Shame on anyone supporting this. What the hell happened to this country? 200 deaths doesn't make a pandemic time to wake up!

Yet in Victoria it’s open season on our police - aggravated assault an officer and you get bail straight away. We’re is the outcry. All we hear about is fines for breaching rules! auspol DanielAndrews viclockdown ABCNews who is protecting the front liners.

Will this be covered by card insurance, i.e. Race Card insurance?

What if they refuse to pay the fine based of principals and silly 'rules and guidelines' not in law? Send them to jail? Get the human rights court involved.

That sounds rather serious. Just wondering if Legal Representation can take that up VS BLM Protesting though ...

What are they going to use to pay these stupid fines? They have no livelihood left! Who gives a shit about your stupid fines? Defund this dick head dan Andrews!! Do the honourable thing and resign

Too little too late This is about China’s intentions for Victoria. Not just about the virus. Good on Victoria for this, still not sure why they did not accept the offer for ADF personel to guard the quarantined travellers earlier. But glad to see they have changed their mind on using them now. 👍
