Reversing sign

Ooops....should read "caution - caravan reversing"

Hi Bunny,

I'd go to a sign maker and get them to make it, Just draw it and they can make it.

Gday Bunny
Write to Lil Wes and ask him. He designed all the new signs on the melbourne freeway up grade a couple of years back. His mate makes them. Or just go to google and look up "signs"

Hi Bunny

Check with your local Council before purchasing or putting up signs - they will have a policy about signs. Try pointing out to them that there is a dangerous situation for you when reversing onto the road and see if they can offer a solution first.

Hi Bunny!

All road warning signs MUST be AS compliant in all states of Australia. Any signage on the road that changes the road conditions [speed, warnings] must also be placed by certified traffic management personelle.

If an loss or damage is caused by a non AS , planned sign of any description , the person/party who places it is directly responsible and may be held liable.

In reality , you could have just taken responsibility for any accident by some numpty who isn't watching what he is doing.
The safest way to circumnavigate this is to place witches/reflective warning devices on the road that are visible form 200m, [or max distance if 200m is not possible].

This then places the ownus on the driver then [theoretically] , as they have seen the devices and are now responsible for their action from that point on. This is still a very grey area , and is open to interpretation if it gets messy.
As Mother Hen stated , people blocking the road [which is still actually illegal], may be your best bet, as they are now pedestrians and come under a different juristriction legally. : /

Also to Mother Hen , I think I know the Auto sparky you referred to in Mandurah as we have to back a semi-trailer full of counterweights for cranes next door. Drivers will actually drive over the curb while the truck is still reversing in order to save 10 seconds. Idiots.

Have you considered reversing your van into your property ? I also live on a corner block and find other drivers don't mind waiting a few seconds for me to get the van into the driveway. It's a lot safer than reversing out into oncoming traffic.

Cheers
