Hi all,
Just wondering if anybody can maybe clear something up for me?
I have heard that supposedly there is new legislation on the way that requires any person with a modified four wheel drive that has to be certified to be a member of or signed up to some 4wd magazine registrar or data base from which you get some card which you have to present if asked by a police officer??
Is this true or just some hear say bull crap?

Don't wait, stick it thru the cert.....And your all good.
From my understanding the LTSA are going to a wider audience for guidance on the subject.

Wait and see on cards. If you are ready for cert, proceed anyway.

Are you in the South Is?....Don't be pushed into joining an organisation when there is no need to, just get everything certed and you will be fine so long as it's all legal.
