John Burrill, former Transport & Main Roads road rules subject matter expert and Wendy Nash, founder of Get Around Cabo Carfree discuss Qld's bike riding rules 1 by 1 as listed on the Qld government bike fines page. We hope you will learn about the road rules for bikes.
You're welcome to send us your question about Qld road rules for bikes, pedestrians, wheelchairs and scooters.
In this episode we include a broader discussion about the legislation for people outside cars and how daft many of the road rules are for bikes because the legislation is for cars and retrofitted to bikes. Today it's traffic lights and signs.
We also discuss what is legislation, how bike riding connects people to the community, Ausroads guidelines, and communication issues within government departments and the impact on the community.
Road Rules 360 (RR360) cohosted with John Burrill, former TMR subject matter expert for Qld’s road rules. We discuss the road rules for people riding a bike, walking, in a wheelchair or on a scooter or other personal mobility device (PMD).
Not Everyone Drives (NED) are conversations with people who don’t drive for any reason. They may have a disability, be on medication, strapped for cash, too young, too old, unlicensed, they had a collision or want to do something else than drive everywhere. This one’s for policymakers to understand the implications for their decisions.
People & Projects (P&P) are for transport advocates and people who are curious to hear what’s happening globally and locally. These are interviews with academics, advocates and community group leaders.
Please bear with us as we get the hang of podcasting.
