My sister was invloved in a low speed accident today.... she drove into the back of a car in a traffic cue.... the accident was deffinatly her fault... but apparently the other cars towbar stuck out to far... i was told that there is a legal limit in queensland of how long your towbar can be is this true the towbar stuck out 5 inchs from the bumper and about 7 inches from the base

5 inches is about right matey, otherwise you couldn't turn with a trailer on... i made mine as short as possible and that's about 5 inches too... it's just not a good idea to park on someone elses towbar...
