The Tasmanian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (TACC) has served the automotive industry in Tasmania since 1928.

There had always been a long standing and mutually supportive relationship between TACC and the Victorian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (VACC).

TACC successfully lobbied state government on behalf of members for many years, but times were changing and in 1999 TACC and VACC were amalgamated. This merger offered members a more diverse range of services, while still maintaining a Tasmanian perspective on local issues.

Today we are dedicated to the promotion, representation and preservation of member businesses to local, state and federal governments, as well as the media, consumers and the community.

Government mandates reverse aids from 2025

3 August 2023

 

From November 2025 all new vehicle models sold in Australia will be required by law to have either reversing cameras or sensors fitted as standard. This includes all types of light passenger vehicles, medium and heavy goods trucks.

The new Australian Design Rule mandate aims to reduce pedestrian injuries and death from reversing vehicles by providing drivers with the best line of sight while reversing.

According to a regulation impact statement, it is estimated reversing aids would save 12 lives, prevent 340 severe and 152 minor injuries.

For new vehicles made from existing models, this life-saving technology must be installed from 1 November 2027.
