Driver straps in beer, leaves kid loose
Map: Alice Springs 0870 (http://www.abc.net.au/news/maps/map.htm?lat=-23.6989&long=133.8829&caption=Alice%20Springs%200870)
Police in Alice Springs say they were appalled to find a driver put a seatbelt around a carton of beer - but left a five-year-old child unrestrained.
Officers stopped the unregistered sedan on the Ross Highway south of Alice Springs on the weekend.
They found the child sitting in the back seat without a seatbelt, but the driver had put a belt around a slab of beer.
It's good to see the law is being followed properly in the Alice.
