Transport Legislation (Road Safety and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2022
This bill makes a range of improvements to Queensland's transport laws. It broadens the types of road safety programs that can be funded from camera fine revenue, allows a wider range of motorised mobility devices to be used legally, extends legal protections for health professionals reporting unfit interstate drivers, streamlines court evidence rules for vehicle modification offences, and extends accommodation works powers to rail projects.
Transport Legislation (Disability Parking and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2019
This bill extends Queensland's Disability Parking Permit Scheme to include people who are legally blind, and doubles the fine for misusing disability parking bays from $266 to $533. It also makes technical updates to rail safety definitions to align with national law.
State Penalties Enforcement (Modernisation) Amendment Bill 2022
This bill modernises Queensland's fines enforcement system and makes changes across several unrelated policy areas. It centralises the handling of camera-detected and tolling fines under a single agency (SPER within the Queensland Revenue Office), extends land tax concessions to Special Disability Trusts, reforms how the Residential Tenancies Authority is funded, and updates confidentiality rules for state penalties and taxation officials.
Transport Legislation (Disability Parking Permit Scheme) 2019
This bill was discharged and did not become law. It would have allowed people who are blind or have severe vision impairment to apply for disability parking permits in Queensland. Currently, only people with impaired walking ability qualify, even though four other Australian jurisdictions already include vision impairment as an eligible condition.
Transport Legislation (Road Safety and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2019
This bill makes a wide range of amendments to Queensland transport legislation, with a primary focus on road safety. It strengthens drink driving laws by expanding the Alcohol Ignition Interlock Program to mid-range offenders and introducing mandatory education programs. It also improves speed camera enforcement on roads with multiple speed limits and extends alcohol and drug testing to people who dangerously interfere with vehicle operation.
