What's the fine for something like that ???
I asked our Group Captain yesterday, he said it was up to the court to determine the penalty.

Alerts have been posted on social media for a Fire Warning tomorrow across the State of NSW.
To keep up to date, visit the RFS Web Site.
https://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/fire-information/fdr-and-tobans

This happened today, I don't know the circumstances, I hope all who are involved are OK.

It's a concern to see so many active fires today across NSW alone.
Wonder what other states are like?

Our 4wd Club has cancelled this Sundays Hut Maintenance day, there are many fires in the country we visit
No point in putting anyone at risk.

Hey Bird,
We got 38mm Thursday night, Friday, was good, but nowhere near what is needed.
Heaps of people on FB asking who delivers water. Nymboida residents  asking council to waiver water fee on the Cubes that are used for firefighting.
And there are people watering lawns, in Yamba, Maclean & Grafton, even here in Lawrence.
Unbelievable :(

The Hazzards Near Me app is good, but gets overloaded.
Talking with a lady who just bought a property west of Bingra, it's dry.
Take care mate.
