Grant Award View - GA67964
RV Safety Awareness Project
The purpose of the Grant is to target areas of risk that are specific to RV travellers and educate these road users to minimise incidents and encourage consistent and compliant behaviour on our road networks.
The Project identifies nine core areas that include towing, vehicle weights and weight distribution, speed, overtaking safely, UHF radio communication, rest, roadside services, consumer behaviour and licensing. These core areas align with four of the Safe System principles: safe vehicles, safe speeds, safe people and safe roads.
The Project will develop educational and instructive material which will be available to all RV users across Australia. This material aims to support improved behaviours on our roads, minimise issues relating to overloaded or non-compliant vehicles and provide resource material that will be available for years beyond the grant period.
This Grant is being provided under, and these Grant Details form part of, the Agreement between the Commonwealth and the Grantee dated 12 December 2019 – RSAEF-Closed-2/Campervan & Motorhome Club of Australia.
