RAC is urging Western Australians to be extra vigilant around their property after recent storms in the state saw a surge of 1100 claims in less than a week.

RAC has been recognised globally for its innovative work on Automated Vehicle (AV) technology

RAC’s Community Education team begins its trip to Bunbury next week to educate students about staying safe on the roads.

RAC has donated $100,000 in financial support to Western Australia’s State Emergency Service (SES) units to help them purchase life-saving equipment.

Bunbury is the most expensive regional city in the country for transport costs, according to the Australian Automobile Association’s latest Transport Affordability Index.

RAC has welcomed funding in today’s State Budget for a number of important road and rail projects, however lower investment in road maintenance and continued increases to motoring fees remain a concern for WA drivers.

The Federal Government has included $3.2 billion in its 2018/19 Budget for critical road and rail projects that will help address the impacts of congestion and road trauma and allow WA motorists to move around the State safely and efficiently.

RAC has today released its Risky Roads campaign scorecard, revealing almost half of the State’s most dangerous roads and intersections have no budget allocated to fix them.

A new report commissioned by RAC shows that over the past 12 years, WA has averaged a return of just 28c for every dollar of motoring taxation collected by successive Federal Governments.

RAC members can now save on an escape to WA’s South West region, with RAC announcing its acquisition of eco-style Wharncliffe Mill Bush Retreat which has been renamed RAC Margaret River Nature Park to promote its unique location in the heart of the Margaret River Region.
