As you may have heard, motorcycle riders in Victoria have been slugged an extra $50 over and above their normal registration fees as part of the new budget. This $50 will be put towards covering the cost of serious accidents and crashes that motorcyclists are purported to be involved in and to help fund a bike safety campaign that nobody has ever heard of!
These proposals have all been put forward without ANY consultation or input from VMAC (Victorian Motorcycle Advisory Council) - our State's expert committee on motorcycling.
