Heading to the beach is something we do in the warmer weather, long weekends and holidays. Generally a number of us will need to drive to get there.
Does traffic enforcement happen in beach areas? It certainly does. Police officers throughout Wide Bay Burnett District include patrols of these areas and conduct enforcement operations where justified.
If you’re new to driving or planning a trip to the beach or a holiday at Fraser Island, you need to be aware of your obligations when driving on sand. Transport and Main Roads provide road rules for Fraser Island here, Department of National Parks, Sport and Racing have guidelines here and some great safety video clips here.
Be cautious on the beach and remember slow is safe.
