Queensland road rules
All drivers need to know our road rules. They are actively enforced to avoid safety risks.These basic road rules always apply:
- You must give way to the right at unsigned cross intersections.
- You must abide by traffic signs, lights and road markings.
- You must obey the speed limit.
- A STOP sign means that all wheels of your vehicle must come to a complete halt.
- You cannot make a U-turn at a set of traffic lights, unless a sign states you can.
A copy of the Your Keys to Driving in Queensland book is available to download online or purchase. It contains essential information about the Queensland driver licensing system, and road rules.
The road rules legislation contains a full list of road rules in Queensland. To order a hard copy of the legislation, visit the Queensland Government Bookshop website.
Remember — road rules are developed for your safety. Failure to comply is dangerous and may result in a fine or worse.
