Heavy Vehicle National Law Amendment Bill 2019
This bill amends Queensland's heavy vehicle national law to implement reforms agreed by Australian transport ministers. It streamlines permit administration, consolidates vehicle defect notice rules, allows certain semitrailers to operate at 4.6 metres high without individual permits, and formally authorises the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator to provide compliance advice and education to the transport industry.
Heavy Vehicle National Law Amendment Bill 2018
This bill amends the national law governing heavy vehicles (trucks and buses over 4.5 tonnes) to give enforcement officers stronger powers to investigate safety issues and stop dangerous operators. It also allows certain high-performance trucks easier access to the road network and streamlines court processes for driver fatigue offences in Queensland.
