Tow Truck Act 2023

Criminal Code (Dangerous Driving) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2026

This bill overhauls Queensland's dangerous driving laws, replacing the single existing Criminal Code offence with a new set of offences that separate motor vehicles from non-motor vehicles like bikes, skateboards, trains and vessels. It raises maximum penalties, lengthens minimum licence disqualifications, and adds new aggravating circumstances such as drink/drug driving, fleeing police and advertising the offence on social media. The changes commence on 1 March 2027.
