The government argues releasing names violates privacy, likening driving habits to criminal records, while opposition demands transparency, calling it a double standard since these are government-funded cars. Unclear whether ministers or staff were behind the wheel, violations averaged 17 km/h over the limit, with tickets averaging $144. Critics note the premier’s past complaints about speed cameras, yet these speeds were far beyond minor infractions. A court battle over releasing names is ongoing.
