Petition: Drive Wicked Campers off the road

Take Action Add comments

Sign the petition – together we can end Wicked Campers’ mobile misogyny once and for all

Wicked Campers are notorious for their sexually explicit slogans and imagery, even advocating rape and murder.

Ad Standards has upheld complaints against Wicked Campers’ slogans and imagery more than 80 times; but with no power to enforce rulings and no penalties, the company ignores every notice.

Not even a petition signed by 126,000 people initiated by an 11 year old – upset by a slogan referring to girls as ‘sluts’ – could get Wicked Campers to change its ways.

Since then, Tasmania, ACT and Queensland have passed laws to deregister Wicked if it doesn’t abide Ad Standards Rulings.

We are calling on MPs to enact similar legislation in other states – Western Australia, South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria. This will close the loophole that allows de-registered Wicked Campers to cross the boarder and re-register in other states.

Together we can get this done – Sign the petition today
