Like from DDF on vacation? I'm sure some people have, it's just not the most popular state to visit when visiting Australia for the first time when you have a limited amount of time. There are loads of things to do there, village an extremely large State and things can get very far apart.

Anyone have info on the Jewish community in Launceston in Tasmania.

I have friends that visited Darwin and around Perth.

Perth has a nice sized Jewish community, including Chabad. Then there is the city of freemantle near Perth.

In general it's a good idea if you ever plan on going to Australia ever again. No one takes kindly to unpaid tickets.

not sure how they would track me unless i rent a car It's attached to my license not my passport .Anyway it seems like the fine is a additional 35 dollars a year for the ticket so if i ever do go back i can pay it then I don't see a reason to pay now.Please correct me if im wrong.

Also depends on the territory. I got one in Northern Territory, which I have no plans to visit again and never paid. All the blogs say to ignore it. My wife got one in New South Wales, which I advised to pay as I'm sure we'll be back in Sydyney to visit family...
