OrganisationReferenced in 3 bills
Tow Truck and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill reforms three distinct areas: it regulates tow truck operators who remove vehicles from private property (like shopping centres), ensures 17-year-old drivers remain accountable for serious driving offences, and reduces administration fees for motorists with multiple unpaid tolls. The private property towing reforms respond to community complaints about exploitative practices.
Transport Legislation (Road Safety and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2019
This bill strengthens Queensland's approach to road safety by significantly reforming drink driving laws and improving speed camera enforcement. It extends the alcohol interlock program from 2 to 5 years, requires drink drivers to complete education programs, and expands the program to capture mid-range offenders. The bill also enables point-to-point speed cameras on roads with variable speed limits and improves marine pollution cost recovery processes.
Transport and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill makes changes across multiple transport policy areas. It completes Queensland's transition to the national heavy vehicle regulatory scheme by transferring staff to the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator. It also strengthens road safety for e-scooter and bicycle users, creates consistent safety duties for bus and passenger transport operators, modernises toll payment processes, and allows overseas visitors to use digital driver's licences.
