VSI 33 Requirements for Modifications to Vehicles Operated Under Victoria's Club Permit Scheme-1.png

All vehicles in Victoria need to comply with specific standards to ensure that drivers and passengers are provided with a minimum level of safety. A modified vehicle must not be used on a road or road related area unless the modification has been approved by VicRoads or carried out in accordance with guidelines published by VicRoads. The Vehicle Standards Information (VSI) sheets provide this guidance by outlining vehicle standards and modification requirements for light vehicles.

The Department of Transport (DoT) has made updates to several VSIs. The updates directly support DoTs continued focus on safety and will ensure road users in Victoria are safer than ever before.  

There were six VSIs open for consultation:

  • VSI 1 Bull Bars

  • VSI 5 Conversion of Vehicles to Motor Homes

  • VSI 6 Requirements for A – Frame Towing of Vehicles

  • VSI 8 Guide to Modifications for Motor Vehicles

  • VSI 26 Roadworthiness Requirements

  • VSI 33 Guidelines for Modifications to Vehicles Operated Under Victoria's Club Permit Scheme

There were six VSI feedback forms, one for each VSI, the opportunity to provide feedback is NOW CLOSED as of Friday 5 March 2021.
