Road Transport (Driver Licensing)

Amendment (Safe-T-Cam) Regulation

2005

under the

Road Transport (Driver Licensing) Act 1998

Her Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Road Transport (Driver Licensing) Act 1998.

MICHAEL COSTA, M.L.C.,

Minister for Roads

Explanatory note
Schedule 1 to the Road Transport (Driver Licensing) Regulation 1999 (the principal Regulation) prescribes demerit points in relation to a number of offences. In certain cases the demerit points apply only if the offence is committed in a Safe-T-Cam zone (Safe-T-Cam zone offences). Currently, the demerit point scheme in relation to these Safe-T-Cam zone offences applies only in relation to class C motor vehicles. The object of this Regulation is to extend the demerit point scheme in relation to Safe-T-Cam zone offences to class B motor vehicles. This Regulation also extends the Safe-T-Cam zone for the purposes of the principal Regulation from 100 metres past a Safe-T-Cam zone sign to 300 metres past such a sign.

This Regulation is made under the Road Transport (Driver Licensing) Act 1998, including sections 15 (1) and 19 (the general regulation-making power).
