So QLD licences are going up. QLD is going to be the most expensive state to ride in. Below is the info and link to the government website, to sign the petition against this.
Personally I think it's BS... if they need more $$$, why aren't cyclists, who now have more road rights, paying rego ?
********************************
Queensland residents draw to the attention of the House the Government's proposal to double the cost of Queensland Drivers Licences to more than $150, making Queensland licences the most expensive in the Nation. These changes, along with hikes in vehicle registration costs, the new State fuel tax, and above CPI increases for tolls make Queensland the most expensive State in Australia to be a motorist.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to oppose this massive increase in Queensland Drivers Licence charges.
