Some driving and parking offences can attract additional demerit points if you commit them in a school zone.
School speed zones operate on all school days, including school development days, when teachers may be at the school.
Double demerits can also apply in school zones during holiday periods. You can lose your licence if you commit an offence in an operating school zone during a holiday period. The larger number of demerit points that would apply to the school zone will be doubled.
For information about when school zones are operating, see the Centre for Road Safety websitelaunch.
