Saw one yesterday driving back to Adelaide between Nyngan and Cobar. It
flew across the road in front of us.

I don't think that Spotted Quail-thrush are that diffcult to see, here
in Canberra you can pretty much guarantee to see them every time you go
into suitable habitat in the mountains (Namadgi NP), they're quite
common.
I never saw one in SE Qld when I lived there, despite trying hard, I
think it's just they're not as common as further south.
