QLD Infringement Notice Just Received – How Would You Deal With It?
Hi! I just received an infringement notice from QLD Government in the mail (and have opened it… the envelope is in pretty bad shape).
It is a carrying a mobile phone while driving offence, $1,209 fine. It wasn’t actually me driving, but I’m okay with dealing with it in my name.
What is the best action to take to get this matter resolved? I have tried a couple of different approaches over the last couple of years, but never really had any success. Mainly because I wasn’t willing to take it to court. But I am this time if I need to.
Fyi, my driver licence is signed “all rights reserved” and I have my birth source document.
Thanks in advance!

I’ve been giving it a lot of thought, and have decided to do the following:
1. opt for the option to take the matter to court
2. before the court date, send 3 notices of my non consent and offer to conditionally accept upon proof of valid claim. This will create an agreement that they have no claim.
3. submit the evidence/affidavit of no claim along with my all rights reserved driver licence and birth source document
I expect that if I do the 3 steps above the matter will be thrown out of court before the appearance date.
Is this a good strategy? I’d like to know your feedback/suggestions.
Thanks!
