Violence erupted at one of Melbourne’s main attractions today as police clashed with anti-lockdown protesters at the Queen Victoria Market

One such incident caused a fresh storm over enforcement after a social media post on Saturday night in which Natalie Bonett claimed she was stopped by police at a vehicle checkpoint at Wallan, north of Melbourne.

A Victoria Police spokeswoman said officers spoke to Ms Bonett about her mobile phone "obstructing her view due to its position on the windscreen", explaining that this was against the law.After she did not remove the phone from her windscreen, she also refused to provide her name or her driver’s licence, according to police.

"Victoria Police reminds all drivers that the Road Safety Act requires that they must state their name and address and produce their driver’s licence when requested to do so by a police officer," the statement said. A Victoria Police spokeswoman said the family were pulled over and said they were heading to Warragul hospital, but the vehicle’s boot was "packed full of items".
