Yes it's restricted with some guidelines. I'm pretty sure my neighbour will ignore all warnings and continue anyway.

I gave it a google and edited dmy comment. Technically it isn't illegal, they just say to avoid it. the restrictions do essentially say he must carry a fire extinguisher with over 9L capacity, but I doubt he would. Bloody tosser ngl

I know it's not as bad in the city, but I just can't shake my countryside instincts. If this was my neighbour where I used to live, he'd have gotten a firm backhander across the face by now, because he'd be risking burning the entire bloody town down

There's very little fuel for a grassfire around. But I do get where you're coming from.

Us suburbanites have very low survival instincts, especially entitled blokes over 80 (like old mate next door)
