This Z3, 130, is wrapped for a campaign aimed at motorists reminding them that the law requires them not to undertake trams when they have stopped at a tram stop to avoid running over passenegers boarding or alighting. Slowly tram stops are being rebuilt with platforms to get round this problem, but there are man "middle of the road" tram stops and many ignorant or thoughtless motorists for whom frantic ringing of the external bell by the driver does not always help them realise they are breaking the law and puting people's lives at risk. Car 130 is seen on Toorak Road in the 58 having just passed South Yarra Station in February 2023.

A less colourful wrap to the same end was applied to short Combino 3522 seen in March at the Chapel Street/Dandenong Road junction on Grand Prix service which served gates along St Kilda Road then terminated at the junction in Windsor. Short workings of the 5 and 64 services continued to Malvern and East Brighton, rather than allowing the necessary number of Grand Prix specials to complete the 5 and 64 in their entireity.
