Wear your seatbelt + Drive sober and alert + Put your phone away + Drive to the conditions = Get where you're going safely is the message police are sending motorist the long weekend.

Police focus is on ensuring people are driving safely and to the conditions, a police spokesperson says.

Our expectation is that all road users comply with the posted speed limit and drive to the conditions, they say.

Over the holiday period – from 4pm Friday 25 October to 6am Tuesday 29 October – if you're detected by a safe speed camera exceeding the area's posted speed limit by more than 4km/h, you will be ticketed, police say.

Our officers will still have discretion in how they deal with incidents and how they are enforced, police's focus will be on preventing harm on our roads, the spokesperson says.
