Ron,
It exceeds the requirements J
My understanding is that the definition of a Long Vehicle is any combination
that exceeds 7.5 metres however the Long Vehicle signage is not required
until the combination is 22 Metres or more - the high level centre brake
light is not required either.
But as we all know we share the road with a lot of Numties who have to
overtake any trailer if it is in front of them regardless of how fast or
slow it is traveling;
The sign gets people's attention and that's what it's there for.

Guys as I read the QLD requirements there is no need to have a "long
Vehicle sign"; just the "do not overtake turning vehicle" sign and the
Horizontal Diagonal thing which must be at least 0.16 square meters in area.
I presume that the trailer in the pic satisfies the ACT/NSW requirements??

Guys,
I did my trailer up last year - the signs are from a truck/bus
supplier; even the big "Long Vehicle" sign was just $40.00,
and before someone comments that I don't have side lights or reflectors, it
did before the job was completed.
The most expensive item was the LED high centre brake light and the paint J

Subject: [Aus-soaring] QLD trailer markings
Guys Pam Kurstjens some time back kindly reminded all owners of Qld
registered trailer about new requirements for "do not overtake" type
markings. Can anyone put me onto a place where I can get these signs
please?? I have searched three shops in WA and can only get the printed "do
not overtake" signs. I am after the symbol signs for this in 300 x 300, not
the usual 400 x 400, and also the horizontal diagonal striping sticker???
Thanks, Ron.
