A new direction for cycling in Queensland

On 7 June 2013 the Legislative Assembly agreed to a motion that the Transport, Housing and Local Government Committee inquire into and report on the following particular issues to improve the interaction of cyclists with other road users: 1. short and long term trends in bicycle injuries and fatalities involving motor vehicles; 2. evaluation, considering factors such as effectiveness, enforceability and impacts on other road users of existing and any other alternative road rules, such as the 1m rule, which govern interaction between cyclists and other road users; 3. current penalties and sanctions, including where there are differential fine rates for cyclists compared to other road users; 4. the potential benefits and impacts of bicycle registration.
