It's now country Victoria's turn to hear the latest from the state's parliamentary inquiry into motorcycle safetyPublic hearings will be held in the Victorian cities of Wangaratta and Wodonga in late November, to hear about the Victorian parliament’s current inquiry into motorcycle safety.
The inquiry has 11 terms of reference, including:

- Ways in which government and non-government sectors can work together to achieve motorcycle safety outcomes.
