Heavy Vehicle National Law
Queensland is one of the states where the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) applies, and the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) administers it. Mass, dimension and loading rules, fatigue management and chain of responsibility duties all sit under the HVNL. Insurance does not replace compliance, but a breach can affect how a claim is handled. Our guides on the HVNL and truck insurance and on chain of responsibility explain the link.
