The Australian Government has legislated that channel 9 on the 27 mhz CB Band is reserved for emergency use only 
As at January 2007 the maximum penalties for the misuse of the legally allocated CB emergency channels are:
  • For general misuse - if an individual 2 years imprisonment, otherwise $165,000 (a $220 on-the-spot fine can be issued in minor cases); or
  • For interference to an actual call - if an individual 5 years imprisonment, otherwise $550,000 (no on-the-spot fine can be issued, must go to court)
 
If you interfere with another persons conversation just select another channel and do not provoke troublemakers that may deliberately search out other people provoke a reaction, Just ignore them remember
