Stamp duty, calculated properly

Every state prices duty differently — per $100, per $200, sliding percentages, cylinder classes, emissions categories. A $50,000 car costs $1,600.00 in NSW duty and something quite different everywhere else. See all 8 side by side, or run your own numbers:

Demerits & fines, straight from the schedules

Every state and territory sets its own penalties, so the same offence can carry different demerit points and a different fine depending on where you were driving. We take the points and the fine straight from each road authority's published schedule and show them side by side, stating the consequence without the lecture. Pick a state to see what a given offence actually costs and how close it sits to losing your licence.
