The Queensland Government has announced new road safety laws that will take effect from 1st December 2026
- Doubled penalties for drug driving
- Stronger penalties for combined drink and drug driving offences
- Increased fines and longer licence disqualification periods
- Tougher consequences for serious and repeat dangerous driving offenders
While these changes apply to road users, they also serve as a reminder for employers to review how drug and alcohol risks are managed within their own workplaces.
