except the bit about
“There is no charge and inspectors will not be issuing breach notices, if applicable, the state body assured."

yeah, right, I believe EVERYTHING the Gov. tells me as Gospel Truth

but it may be on the level...... good for you guys in QLD.............

“There is no charge and inspectors will not be issuing breach notices, if applicable, the state body assured."

But they will take your rego number and keep an eye out for you on the road :hand:

Surely if they find an actual unsafe condition then they would have to act on it or could be held liable if an accident were to happen.

I saw that in an ad for the 4x4 show and thought it might be a good idea but didn't like the thought of having to drive from the Gold Coast through Brisbane on a Saturday, dragging two and a half tonnes of van. And I agree that even if they don't issue any breach notices, they will have you on file and will follow up on any problems.

@dagree and @chartrock
my thoughts exactly.............. "just a followup to see if you have rectified the things we told you about - 30 minutes ago............."

@PhilD - thats another thought, but, in all seriousness, unless they change the Laws (and not tell us Caravaners)
most things should be "tickety boo....."

I may be wrong (as usual) but it sounds to me like they would want to check
Brakes
Gas
240V
12V


According to Caravanning Queensland, those who take part will also be able to “have questions answered that may have been nagging you for years.”

hmmmmmm cannot think of ANYTHING (apart from the Boss) that has been "nagging" me for years............................
