Have been in discussion with a few mates(smoe of whom have recently resided interstate) regarding the state imposed speed limits for towing... This came up as one guy is planning an around OZ adventure with a CT & tinny in tow, total mass of about 1150kg.

Some thought NSW had an 80km/h limit

Some thought WA had an 80km/h limit depending on the weight of the trailer

One bloke who only got his breif 3 months ago in QLD reckons he was told by his instructor(apparently backed up by some form of paperwork) that 80km/h is a blanket law across Aust

I'm pretty sure Vic, SA and NT are 100km/h (NT higher where safe)

I've spent the last hour and a half looking blankly at state road websites with no joy...

I seem to remember a thread about or close to this topic some time ago but a search revealed nothing.

Anyone care to share some thoughts on the subject???

Thanks in advance
