Ok so i was out skating today at buderim on a nice run and we only really had one driver well legal driver and that was Ben who makes the grom biz trucks. So i done one run with ben driving then we parked the car half way and were about to walk up the road from the time we had one run we found out the cops showed up because when ben dropped me off to do the run i guy saw us and dobbed us in, anyway the cops came one lady and a gentle man and they were pretty chilled they said they were worried for are safety and were saying about we can go to court now with the new laws, they also just said we shouldn't be doing it on this road because it's busy and she also said which shocked me "oh this road is way to busy and dangerous if you can find somewhere else to do it that would be fine" and we had leathers on with helmets in are hands thinking that was a bit weird and then she tells us about the guy who got caught up on the run and was on youtube blah blah blah and from then on they changed the law in Qld that classifies skateboards as vehicles and then when asked "so if we are traveling the speed limit and following normal vehicle road rules is it then alright to skate down this hill" and the reply from both was just "umm arrrr yeah,well it's more about your safety and the other people around" What the so in this case if, this information was true we are classified as a vehicle and can follow road rules can we then skate on roads with no hassle of police?
