Wicked Campers faces national crackdown over offensive slogans
There’s been another development in the ongoing saga over Wicked Campers’ vans with both South Australian transport minister Stephan Knoll, and Victorian roads minister Jaala Pulford announcing plans to follow a crackdown on the campers led by Queensland, Tasmania and the ACT.
In 2016 and 2017 Queensland, Tasmania and the ACT moved to deregister vans which held offensive slogans, but Wicked Campers was able to circumnavigate the laws by simply registering the vans in other states.
Several Wicked Campers vans have been ruled as inappropriate by Ad Standards, but the company has found loopholes to keep the vehicles on the roads
They really are the most puerile slogans. It’s like a 12 year-old Alexander “The Things That Batter” Downer got stuck into his dad’s spray cans.
Do you know who we haven’t heard an update on lately?
Honey Birdette.
I mean lingerie in shopping centres and foul slogans on the back of some backpackers hired wagon are mutually exclusive and what this industry should be focused on.
Gee, how long did this take?
Try explaining to your ten year old daughter sitting next to you in the car, what these slogans mean and you get an idea of how totally offensive they are and completely unnecessary.
I was hoping we’d get another WC story soon…
What about the ZERO TO BITCH IN 3 SECONDS or WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I GIVE A —K , these are just as offensive
you all take shit too seriously, it’s Meant to be funny and so you can have a laugh, everyone needs to settle down and enjoy life
Wow. Complaining about camper slogans. But it’s ok to watch news, especially Al Jazeera where everyday people kill in the name of a medieval fairytale. (Religion) Grow up!
They are not ‘funny’ in any way.. and I have a pretty good sense of humor
