About 11.30am Tuesday, April 21, police identified a vehicle registered to the Narooma woman outside a home on Peden Street in Bega.
The woman was located inside the property and was issued with a penalty infringement notice (PIN).
The woman was among a range of PINs issued on Tuesday, and not the only one penalised for multiple breaches of NSW government directives.
About 7.45pm Tuesday night, officers from Lake Illawarra were patrolling when they observed a Mazda CX5 parked in a car park on Cowper Street, Port Kembla.
Police spoke to the occupants - a 40-year-old Barrack Heights woman and a 46-year-old Werrington man - who both provided no reasonable excuse for not complying with ministerial directions.
Checks revealed the woman was issued a warning on April 9 and she was subsequently issued a $1000 PIN. The man was issued a warning.
In Woonona just before 4.30pm, officers from Wollongong Police District stopped a 17-year-old boy. He told police he was visiting a friend because he was "bored" and had "nothing else to do".
The teen has previously been issued PINs on April 6 and April 15 and was subsequently issued a third $1000 PIN.
Meanwhile, also in Woonona, a 15-year-old boy has been issued with his second PIN in two weeks for failing to comply with a ministerial direction.
About 4.30pm, officers attached to Wollongong Police District spoke to the teenager at a Carrington St unit. After telling police he was there to see a friend, he was fined $1000.
