Looks as if SA will close their border. How does someone in WA get home to eastern states? Will WA self isolate?

I've been thinking about this, how exactly would they police it I wonder. They could easily manage the few main roads between states, but just think in a 50km radius of Pinaroo, there's a few spots to cross from SA into Vic via Border track to Big Desert or to Murray Sunset.
Hmm, now how do we keep those pesky Victorians out

How do you enforce SA state border control?

This is an edited post as there has been clarification.

Road freight will be waived through.

For anyone else, it will be a declaration form to certify that they are clear of Covid 19, and that they will self isolate.

Still sounds iffy. We will have to wait for the announcement and details.

thought you might find this Interesting a called Kevin Goldsworthy put this on Facebook.....

**** EVERYBODY MUST READ ****

This is not second hand news or something that was heard from someone else!! This is first hand news straight from myself to u!!

So today on my journey around our great city of Melbourne picking up exports and imports delivering them all off to where they need to go. I got sent a job, a pick up for export at a small factory in footscray/yarraville area.

Company details:
TT EXPRESS
Factory 35/131 Hyde Street, Footscray
When i got there i could not believe my eyes the hole factory is full with our food!! THATS RIGHT PEOPLE!! All the rumours u may have heard about Chinese people buying up all our stock from super markets well its not a rumour!! Its TRUE...... The hole joint was full of repacked boxes of BABY FORMULA, TOILET PAPER, PALLETS OF HAND SANITIZER, TISSUES, FEMININE HYGIENE PRODUCTS and thats just a start!! They had everything from cleaning products to food pasta, rice, tinned goods, pet food even medicine and boxes of paracetamol/panadol!! When i asked the asian guy told me they have been packing 2 shipping containers full everyday and sending it all back to China!! And the company responsible for shipping it all is a company called
Freight Net
factory 9c international square
in tullamarine.
Share the shit out of this people get the word out there this kind of thing needs to stop!!
