A decision to bring in double demerit points on some Australian roads ahead of the national day of mourning for the Queen has been labelled 'heavy handed'.
Double demerits will apply for five days from 12am on Wednesday September 21 until 11:59pm on Sunday September 25 for NSW and ACT roads.
NSW Roads Minister Natalie Ward said the announcement of the public holiday on Thursday by the Commonwealth automatically triggered the increase under NSW law.
