Social Distancing

Post by russellh2 » Thu Aug 27, 2020 3:50 pm

So I can go fishing in rural Victoria with a family member or one other person as long as I observe social distancing rules - How do I do that if we travel in the same vehicle? - Front passenger seat and the back seats are not 1.5 mtrs from driver. It would also be illegal for passenger to travel in the rear compartment of station wagon due to no seat belt available -??????

Good one Russell
I believe taxis make you sit on the passenger side rear seat, but, that's not 1.5mtrs from the driver.
I take a mate shopping and we sit in the front seats. We both wear a mask.
Have not been pulled over, so not sure if it's (really) ok.
I'd ring the local cop shop & get their opinion (name etc too).
You must still stay close to home though
