In the real world - the driver reviver stations only operate during major holiday exodus days.
Some shire council areas DO have blanket bans on any form of free camping anywhere within shire boundaries and some DO enforce it.
A ranger can't force you to move whether drunk or just pretending or stubborn, BUT he can and will issue a ticket which in some places reach 500 dollars. Being pissed or tired is your problem, issuing tickets to undesirables is his. However, on the RV forums the question is occasionally asked whether anyone has reports of actual fines being issued and I think the answer has so far always been 'no'. Backpackers in old whizzzzzBANGs and wicked vans are a real problem in some of the more iconic areas and they are the direct reason for more and more areas being closed to responsible self-contained free-campers (or should that be free-loaders?). On the other side of the argument there are RV groups making a lot of headway in getting towns to recognise that RVers can contribute a lot to the economy of their area - but the resulting overnight stay areas are generally for self contained vehicles.

That said, we have overnighted in more than 20 countries, including in the middle of big cities over a period of 7 years full-timing and in countries where is is said to be totally banned and only twice been moved on - from a fishing reserve in Montana by a ranger doing his job in response to a complaint by a nosey local and a carpark in Morocco by a trio of freelance police working for the local RV park.

There are too many variables, both in attitudes of the governments, police, council rangers, locals AND the traveller for a list such as this to be of much use.
