Special Interest Vehicle Concession Scheme guide
Penalties and compulsory third party insurance
The reduced registration fee and compulsory third-party insurance premium reflect the limited permitted use of your concessionally registered Special Interest Vehicle. If you use your vehicle, or permit it to be used, in breach of the conditions of the Special Interest Vehicle Concession Scheme, you may face a fine or risk having your concession withdrawn.
You may also risk serious insurance implications if your vehicle is involved in a crash whilst being used contrary to the conditions of this scheme. If there is damage to your vehicle, yourself or others, your compulsory third party insurance and comprehensive insurance may become null and void.
Compulsory third-party insurance
The compulsory third-party insurance scheme in Queensland is regulated by the Motor Accident Insurance Commission. The Department of Transport and Main Roads acts as a collection agent only for compulsory third-party insurance premiums on behalf of licensed insurance companies.
Enquiries about the cost of compulsory third party insurance or about the scheme or premiums should be directed to the Motor Accident Insurance Commission website, or phone 1800 287 753 or email maic@maic.qld.gov.au.
