Vehicles should be banned from driving on beaches. Change my mind.

    Most 4wders on K’Gari and other Sand-based highways in Australia are travelling between locations as part of a journey to another location.

    While there are the dickheads out there that do tear up the beaches, they are subject to the same restrictions and laws as dickheads who drive illegally on bitumen on highways and in industrial estates.

    It is tragic that anyone was injured an on a K’Gari beach. We don’t know the full details on what happened, it could be a child that was in an unsafe location, it could have been a driver in an inappropriate location, it could have just been a freak accident. I do hope that the result will be improved public awareness of which beaches are safe and legal to drive on, which beaches are suitable for swimming and which beaches are too dangerous for anyone.
