Explanatory note
The object of this Regulation is to replace certain requirements in a vehicle standard under the Road Transport (Vehicle Registration) Regulation 2007 for the spacing of direction indicator lights on motor bikes and the front of motor trikes with those that apply under Australian Design Rule 19/02 — Installation of Lighting and Light Signalling Devices on L-Group Vehicles to motor bikes and motor trikes manufactured on or after 1 January 1997. In substituting the relevant vehicle standard, this Regulation also repeals and restates existing requirements for the spacing of such lights at the rear of motor trikes and on other vehicles. This Regulation is made under the Road Transport Act 2013, including section 23 (the general regulation-making power) and clause 3 of Schedule 1.
