Default Driving a Jeep without Doors

Hi Guys,

Would anyone have experience with the authorities in Qld about driving a Jeep without doors on Qld roads?

Or just do it and see your luck

Cheers
Big Mac

You will need to relocate your mirrors

I do a bit a driving around Gladstone doorless, never been pulled over but have only driven past 2 or 3 cops.

Just picked up some safari side mirrors but have not tried them out yet.

Thanks mate, lucky me, the mirrors have been relocated already

I just bought the car and the previous owner had done it.

In Vic you will get away with it, in QLD you will not. Would you belive the main argument was that ADR2 for door latches is a problem.. They did state if I could get a letter from Jeep Aus that it still met all relevant ADR's it would be OK. Jeep will not provide this letter

I do have a long document I put together for contesting the issue in QLD but gave up to the beurocracy that is QLD transport.
