State and territory road laws

Review of child restraint requirements in the Australian Road Rules
MACA welcomes and strongly supports the proposed updates to child restraint rules in the Australian Road Rules, outlined in the National Transport Commission (NTC) Issues Paper. MACA contributed to the development of the paper as a member of the NTC's Expert Advisory Group.

By state or territory
There are many differences in road laws in each state and territory for transporting children and adults with disabilities and medical conditions.
To help health professionals, families and other people navigate the law, we've summarised the most common laws in each state and territory.
MACA develops resources such as template letters to assist MACA Certified Professionals to help families and clients comply with road laws. These resources are available from MACAhub Pro.
