Advertising warning – Countrywide Marketing

24-07-2014

National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) Chief Executive, Sal Petroccitto is urging operators to take care in dealing with companies or individuals who may be selling advertising space in publications using words and images that imply a connection to the NHVR where none exists.

"Recently, we have received many enquiries about a company called Countrywide Marketing purporting to sell advertising space in the 'NHVR Roadbook' or 'National Heavy Vehicle Roadbook'," said Mr Petroccitto.

"I want to emphasise that Countrywide Marketing Pty Ltd does not represent the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator. The Regulator has not endorsed nor approved an NHVR or National Heavy Vehicle 'Roadbook'," he said.

Mr Petroccitto advised operators who are approached by any company purporting to sell advertising space and implying a connection with the NHVR, to contact the NHVR first on 1300 MYNHVR (1300 696 487) or info@nhvr.gov.au
