LegislationReferenced in 3 bills
Transport Legislation (Road Safety and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2022
This bill makes a wide range of transport-related changes including broadening how speed and red-light camera fine revenue can be spent on road safety, expanding the types of motorised mobility devices legally allowed on paths, improving court processes for vehicle modification offences, and protecting health professionals who report medically unfit interstate drivers.
Transport and Other Legislation (Managing E-mobility Use and Protecting Our Communities) Amendment Bill 2026
This bill introduces nation-leading reforms to regulate e-mobility devices in Queensland, responding to a near-doubling of injuries and 12 deaths in 2025. It sets a minimum rider age of 16 with a learner licence requirement, gives police powers to seize and destroy non-compliant devices, introduces drink-riding offences with random breath testing, and makes parents responsible when their children ride illegally.
Heavy Vehicle National Law Amendment Bill 2019
This bill amends the Heavy Vehicle National Law to implement nationally agreed reforms for the regulation of trucks and other heavy vehicles across Australia. It updates vehicle standards definitions, streamlines defect notice processes, allows certain semitrailers greater road access, and formally empowers the Regulator to provide advice and education to the transport industry.
