Queensland 4x4 Club

Enjoy, Don't Destroy

Club Trips

New Members are required to attend a club driver training program designed to ensure a minimum safety standard prior to attending club trips that are rated above medium level. 

Upcoming trips are routinely published in our monthly magazine, which is available for free at the monthly club meeting. To view club trip ratings click HERE

Safety Induction

Queensland 4x4 Club bylaws state that all participants of trips above a medium rating must have successfully completed the Club's Driver Safety Induction program or have a National Accreditation Certificate.

The aim of the short program is to ensure a common basic level of driver awareness and skill to ensure the safety and enjoyment of club trips. Members how have previously attended the training program are still welcome to attend to attend to further hone their skills in a controlled environment.

The Club Driver Safety Induction program is free to financial members and is run on demand within the local area. The program runs approximately for 4 hours [allow longer as we usually go for a drive afterwards] and covers the following topics:

  • 4WD Knowledge and Theory
  • 4WD Driving Skills
  • Stall Start Techniques
  • Recovery Techniques

If you are interested in attending the Safety Induction program, please place your name on the trip sheet and you will be notified when the next Safety Induction Training will be held or alternatively contact our Driver Training Coordinator.

The Accredited Training is an assessment weekend where you will need to demonstate the compentancies required to achieve the qualification.
