Salim Mehajer has been fined $200 for driving his Ferrari without carrying his licence, but has escaped conviction after pleading guilty to getting behind the wheel while the luxury sports car was unregistered.

The 29-year-old deputy mayor of Auburn was pulled over in the car – its custom licence plate ending "BO55" for "boss" – after police allegedly noticed him driving erratically along Canterbury Road in Punchbowl on October 24.

He was issued with two traffic penalty notices, for driving an unregistered vehicle and for not carrying a licence. Twenty five minutes later, he was stopped again driving on the same road and issued with another notice.
