Queenslanders are invited to review the discussion paper and complete the online survey to show whether they support or do not support each of the proposals. They are also able to provide extra comments or skip questions they do not wish to answer. No demographic information will be collected from the people who complete the survey.

 
Survey here.

I susggest we all have our say, even if you are interstate.  The more feedback the better.

Admins:  Can we make this a Sticky and if neccessary move it to the appropriate section.
Hmmm. Maybe we could have a section specifically for State road laws, as a resource to easily find the links to road laws in each State.
Cheers,
Gary

I believe NSW are intending to do a review of their lane filtering changes at the end of six months. QLD is waiting for the NSW's report before they discuss it further.

I acknowledge hardworking Australians no matter who they are or where they come from. All those who have contributed to this wonderful country deserve an equal share of gratitude for their contributions. To single any group of individuals out for special homage only denigrates the rest of us.
