National Easter Road Blitz: One Fatality Too Many Already

Queensland Police have stepped up their blitz on the Easter Road Toll with one dead on our roads already. Police have narrowed their focus down to anti-social driving behaviour!

Such behaviour includes, but is not limited to, drink driving, speeding, failure to wear seat belts, driving while tired and drug driving. The National Easter Road Safety Campaign commenced shortly after midnight this morning and will carry on through to just before midnight on Monday evening.

Easter and Anzac Day this year are being recognised with a 5 day public holiday for all of Australia, starting Friday and finishing in time for everyone to go back to work on Wednesday morning.

Fatigued Queensland Drivers Refuse To Stop This Easter

Queenslanders are urged to drive safely this approaching Easter long weekend (22-26 April). The call coincides with the release of the Suncorp Insurance research* on fatigue driving, which shows that more than one-quarter of fatigued Queensland drivers (27 per cent) will not stop for a break.
