Just be aware that the good oil here in Ballarat is that the Police/Sheriff's department are planning an even bigger visit to the swap this year. Last Swap many who had unpaid fines found their cars clamped. They also cleaned up Stolen cars, lost Milk Crates, unregistered cars. All good stuff for us law abiding citizens. Another item inspected in the past has been dodgy trailers.
And if you have a car on Club plates you need to have you log book filled in, I suspect they will be checking this.

strangely enough i didnt see one officer and i went up friday night. then again i was all the way out back. im quite shocked about the milk crate thing, surely it cannot be against the law.

always remain the property of the dairy
unless you pay them..... i think
or the dairy goes out of busness

yeah fair enough, but first they have to prove that it belongs to the dairy, and that the dairy is still in business etc etc. bunch of crap if you ask me.

no you have to prove you own it
not the other way round
(it's printed on the side)
it's crap but that's the law m8t
and only the most strictest cop will bust you for it
most will just warn you at best
