A message from our President
Hi Everyone
I just want to keep you up to date with developments as our self isolation continues.
There have been requests for information concerning the use of permitted vehicles during the current Corona Virus emergency.
As you would know the country is under emergency regulations regarding social distancing and private movements.
Everybody is being encouraged to Stay At Home.
The club supports efforts to safeguard the health of our citizens and seeks the support of the movement to do likewise.
The current Emergency Regulations restrict all vehicle movements to:
• Going to work or school if essential,
• Shopping for essentials,
• Visits to medical services.
Any vehicle and occupants detected by the police, not involved in one of the above can be stopped and fined. As of close of business yesterday Vic Roads have no policy on the use of permitted vehicles during this timeof emergency regulations, but they are discussing the matter with Vic Police.
It is our belief permitted vehicles are probably part of the police crackdown on caravans, motor homes and recreational four wheel drives. Permitted vehicles are being seen as recreational vehicles.
So our advice is unless absolutely necessary for the reasons outlined above leave your club permitted vehicle at home.
We will provide further advice when it comes to hand
Unfortunately the Chief Rain in the Face Rally in Corryong, scheduled for Queens Birthday Weekend has been cancelled until further notice.
For up to date information as the situation changes, you are encouraged to check the club website.–
Kind Regards
Alistair Piercy
President Iron Indian Riders Australia
