Queensland Road Safety Week will run between August 21-25 and is chance for all Queenslanders to get involved in making our roads safer.
‘Speaking up for road safety’ is the focus and we’re encouraging the whole community to have their say on road safety.
Communities, schools and workplaces are encouraged to support the week by hosting local events or sharing road safety information among staff, students, colleagues, family and friends.
You can share a personal story, suggest a road safety tip, talk to your kids, family and friends about staying safe, or make a pledge to improve a single road behaviour using the hashtag #RoadSafetyWeek.
On each day of Road Safety Week, we will be highlighting a different road safety issue:
Speeding – Monday, August 21
Drink and drug driving – Tuesday, August 22
Distractions, seatbelts and child restraints – Wednesday, August 23
Sharing the road, including bike and pedestrian safety – Thursday, August 24
Fatigue – Friday, August 25

Stolen vehicle alert, Monday August 7
In the past, many vehicles have been taken while the victims were at home.
Keys, mobile phones and cash were also stolen after thieves allegedly gained entry to homes and easily located car keys in plain view.
Police advise that residents should secure their homes and vehicles to avoid opportunistic thefts. Hiding car keys and valuables will make it difficult for offenders to steal your vehicle and other property.
Ask yourself: “Where are my car keys?”
If you can, secure your car in a garage or park your vehicle inside of your yard rather than on the street. This will also assist in the prevention of number plates being stolen.
