Nominate someone else

If you’ve received a fine but were not responsible for the offence, you can transfer the fine to the person who was at fault when:

• you were not driving the vehicle when the offence happened
• you sold the vehicle before the date of the offence.

You must nominate the person responsible by the due date of the fine.

Nominate online

Use myPenalty to nominate online. You'll need the penalty notice and the following information about the person responsible for the incident:

• full name
• address
• date of birth
• driver's licence number and the state/country it was issued in
• passport number and country of issue, if you're nominating an international driver.

You must make a reasonable effort to identify the person responsible for the offence.
If you provide false or misleading information you may receive additional fines and restrictions on your licence.

Online tool for businesses

If the vehicle is owned by your business and your company may get more penalty notices, you can register for Company eNominations to nominate online.

You cannot use eNominations for your current penalty notice. To nominate someone else as responsible for this fine, go to myPenalty.

You can use Company eNominations to:

• access a full list of penalties for action (from the date you registered for this service)
• receive email notifications as a reminder to check for new penalties and process them on time
• process multiple nominations
• nominate international drivers online
• check the status of any penalty received
• receive email confirmation of:
  • nominations successfully submitted to us for processing
  • other actions you may need to take
  • liability being transferred.

What happens next?

You can login to myPenalty anytime to check the progress of your request. You may also need to provide more supporting evidence in writing, in person or in court.

If your nomination is successful, a new penalty notice will be sent to the person you named.

If you’ve already paid the fine before nominating another person, we’ll refund you.

Unknown driver

If you do not know who was driving, login to myPenalty to see if photos were taken during the incident.

However, the photos may not provide a clear picture of the person responsible for the offence, so you must contact us to explain why you are unable to identify the driver.
