Transport Minister Andrew Constance says that NSW should subsidize electric vehicles.
He also added that the government needs to pick a âdrop deadâ date for the ban on petrol and diesel vehicle sales.
Mobile phone and speed detection cameras have been egged and vandalised by angry motorists in response to the controversial introduction of unmarked cameras across NSW.
