(1)In proceedings for an offence against these regulations, an allegation in the complaint that a specified zone, parking space, condition, limitation or exemption had been established or imposed under these regulations is conclusive proof that the zone, parking space, condition, limitation or exemption had been validly established or imposed.
(2)In proceedings for an offence against these regulations, a certificate apparently signed by the Director stating that a sign, device or mark had been erected or placed by the Board or the Director is conclusive proof of the facts so stated.
