It sort of does. When I bought one (April last year) the map showed it
as valid on the buses in Toowoomba, but not the buses *to* Toowoomba.
And although it claimed to be valid on all the local buses on the
Sunshine coast, the Calbooture bus driver hadn't heard of them and
refused to accept it.

I hope things have improved since then!
