For Comparison's Sake

I stumbled across this blog. He had gathered some fascinating statistics regarding quirky Council fines:

‘$1,200 fine letting your dog foul the footpath (Brisbane Council), $1,100 fine for spitting on the footpath (Fairfield Council NSW), $375 for putting up a poster and only $60 fine for putting lives at risk by blocking the footpath (Brisbane Council).’

It seems that dog poo, posters and spit are worth more than someone’s life indeed.


Also, if you do feel like breaking the law, speeding is now a cheaper alternative compared to spitting. It’s now on special, from $130 down to $77!
