Mandurah residents most commonly face court for drink driving, speeding offences, driving without a licence, reckless driving, and mobile phone use while driving. Many matters involve tourists unfamiliar with Western Australia road rules, while locals often face repeat offences due to the area's highway connections and tourist traffic.
