Above: Far South Coast Hwp also nabbed this overseas tourist for doing 96km/h in the 50 km/h zone in Cobargo, oh well, he gets a special "present" to take home with him to the value of $872. If it's a rental car, which they often are, the drivers are responsible for any infringements that get recorded against that vehicle. The rental companies go to great lengths to cover off on these issues, such as deposits, credit card details etc. Therefore the driver will have to square away these issues. They don't go away Photos: Traffic and Highway Patrol Command - NSW Police Force
