A man driving under suspension has been charged by police after he allegedly buckled up cartons of beer while children in the car were unrestrained.
Broome police say they discovered the serious traffic offence after they stopped the 27-year-old man on Great Northern Highway on Wednesday.
Police claim the driver had children laying on adult laps and seated in foot wells, while cartons of Emu Export and Victoria Bitter were buckled in.
Kimberley District Superintendent Allan Adam told the ABC police were “surprised” by the incident.
“We do have problems up here in the Kimberley,” he said.
“It shows some of the attitudes of some of our road users in the way they see their priorities.
