Hi all. Just wondering if anyone here knows what Queensland Law is regarding having neons underneath one's car is. I've heard that some colours are legal;I just haven't validated the info through Queensland Transport.

any colour except for red and blue are legal
neons are only to be illuminated when vehicle is stationary and motor switched off vehicle must not be a distraction to other motorists

I was under the impression having under car neons could result in being charged for being a Wayne Ker, I understand the maximum punishment for this offence is revoking your copy of the Fast and the Furious for up to 3 years.

Now, now, just because he wants to add something to his car doesn't mean he should be bagged out for it. Each to their own. If everyone liked and performed the same mods it'd be pretty boring

I'm in NSW and I crossed the line and fitted some blue neons to my car. I think I gre tired of them after about a month. There was only a few times I got a talking to from the local constabulary for having them on whilst driving from which they told me to be on my way, and I think now I havent bothered to turn them on for about a year.
If u decide to fit them, beware steep driveways. Mate had them on his commodore, broke the clip for them backing out of a driveway and smashed them. If u do decide to get some, dont use the clips and go for cable ties! |

Under QLD vehicle standards law, every colour is taken (police, ambos, park rangers etc) bar pink, so that really is your only choice.
Under the QLD road rules, which the police use, you could be charged with dazzling and distracting other drivers, even if you are stationary...
