Who will receive the infringement notice if an authorised officer observes a person littering from a hire company vehicle?
If an authorised officer observes a person littering from a hire company vehicle, the registered owner of the vehicle will receive the infringement notice. This is the same as speeding and red light offences. Vehicle hire companies should treat littering offences in the same way as speeding and red light offences. This would usually involve the registered owner nominating, through a statutory declaration, the person in charge of the vehicle at the time of the alleged offence. On receipt of the declaration, the authorised officer will reissue the infringement notice to the nominated person.
