Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 624 asked in the Legislative Council on 2 September 2021 by Hon Wilson Tucker

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

MAIN ROADS — SAFE ZONES

624. Hon WILSON TUCKER to the minister representing the Minister for Road Safety:

I note recent media reports that Main Roads Western Australia provides a free service so that motorists who experience a breakdown on a major freeway can call 138 138 and have their vehicle towed to a safe zone. I also note that social media and talkback radio comments indicate that many in the public, myself included, were unaware of this service. In light of recent tragedies on our roads, where and how is this service currently advertised to the public?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

On behalf of the Minister for Mental Health, I ask everybody else to check their files. I do not have the answer to that in this file. If it comes in before the end of question time, I will provide the answer to the member.
