s 1 11 s 4A Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation 1995 Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation 1995 [as amended by all amendments that commenced on or before 12 August 2005] Part 1 Preliminary 1 Short title This regulation may be cited as the Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation 1995 . 2 Commencement This regulation commences on 1 July 1995. 3 Definitions The dictionary in schedule 13 defines particular words used in this regulation. 4 Acts that are transport Acts The Tow Truck Act 1973 is a transport Act. 4A Approval of random inspection program (1) The chief executive may only approve a program for stopping private vehicles for the Act, section 47, if the program— (a) states that only an authorised officer who has successfully finished a particular course of training may exercise the powers of an authorised officer at a checkpoint; and

s 4B 12 s 4B Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation 1995 (b) requires an authorised officer to wear a uniform approved by the chief executive when the authorised officer is on duty at the checkpoint; and (c) requires a police officer in uniform to be present at the checkpoint at night; and (d) establishes particular objective criteria for the random selection of motor vehicles for stopping at checkpoints Examples of objective criteria for random selection of motor vehicles — 1 Every fifth motor vehicle passing the checkpoint is to be checked. 2 Every second motor vehicle passing the checkpoint that appears to the authorised officer to be older than 5 years. (2) The program may include other matters the chief executive considers appropriate. (3) The exercise of a power under the Act, section 31(2)(a) is not invalid only because the authorised officer did not tell the driver the particular objective criterion used to select the driver’s vehicle for stopping the vehicle at a checkpoint. (4) A training course mentioned in subsection (1) must educate authorised officers about the powers and duties of authorised officers under the Act and the appropriate way of exercising the powers and duties. 4B Regulation and control of powers of certain authorised officers (1) This section applies to an authorised officer, who is not a police officer, when exercising powers to stop a private vehicle. (2) An authorised officer may only require the driver of a private vehicle to stop the vehicle during daylight. (3) In addition, an authorised officer who is not wearing a uniform approved by the chief executive may only exercise the powers of an authorised officer in relation to a private vehicle that the authorised officer reasonably believes is so

s 4C 13 s 4CA Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation 1995 dangerous as to be likely to cause loss of life or bodily injury to a person. 4C Requirement to remain at a place (1) This section applies if the person in control of a vehicle is required to— (a) stop the vehicle under section 31 or 32 of the Act; or (b) move the vehicle to a place under section 33 of the Act. (2) The person must ensure it remains at the place where the vehicle is stopped or moved to, for the time reasonably necessary to enable the authorised officer to perform a function or exercise a power under those sections. Maximum penalty— (a) for a private vehicle—60 penalty units; or (b) for a heavy vehicle—80 penalty units. 4CA Way to require vehicles to stop or move in preparation for stopping (1) For section 31(2) or 32(2) of the Act, an authorised officer may require the person in control of a motor vehicle to stop the vehicle or for section 32(3) to move the vehicle in preparation for stopping it— (a) by signalling in a way stated in schedule 1A; or (b) by a sign displayed— (i) by the authorised officer; or (ii) on or in the vicinity of the road. Examples of paragraph (b)(ii) — • A sign indicating that trucks must stop at a weighbridge when it is open • A sign indicating that trucks must use left lane • A sign indicating that trucks must exit (2) To help in attracting the attention of the person in control of the motor vehicle to the authorised officer’s signal or sign, an

s 4CB 14 Transport Operations (Road Use Management)Regulation 1995 s9 authorised officer who is not a police officer may, on the officer’s vehicle— (a) display flashing magenta coloured lights; or (b) operate a horn. 4CB Moving loads before weighing (1) This section applies if the person in control of a heavy vehicle is required to— (a) stop the vehicle under section 32 of the Act; or (b) move the vehicle to a place, under section 33 of the Act, to enable the vehicle to be weighed. (2) The person must not unload or alter the position of any part of the load on the vehicle, for the time reasonably necessary to enable the authorised officer to perform a function or exercise a power under those sections. Maximum penalty—80 penalty units. Part 2 Fees 4F Fees generally The fees payable under this regulation are in schedule 1. 9 Indivisible load permit fees (1) This section applies to a motor vehicle with at least 1 trailer (a vehicle combination ) that— (a) is loaded with an indivisible load; and (b) has a loaded mass of more than 125t. (2) The fee for the grant of a permit to operate the vehicle combination is worked out using the formula— journey length x total esa x $0.04

s 10 15 s 11 Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation 1995 (3) In this section— average load per row means the mass (in tonnes) of the loaded trailer that is transmitted to the ground through its tyres, divided by the number of rows of tyres on the trailer. equivalent standard axles means the number shown in schedule 2 opposite the number for the average load per row. journey length means the number of kilometres involved in the journey for which the permit is granted. total esa means the equivalent standard axles multiplied by the number of rows of tyres on the trailer. Example — For a trailer with a loaded mass of 129.5t and 7 rows of tyres, the average load per row is 18.5t (ie 129.5t ÷ 7). According to schedule 2, the equivalent standard axles of a trailer that has an average load per row of 18.5t is 4.6. The total esa for a trailer with equivalent standard axles of 4.6 and having 7 rows of tyres is 32.2 (ie 4.6 x 7). So the fee for a journey of 100km for a vehicle with a total esa of 32.2 is $128.80 (ie 100 x 32.2 x $0.04). 10 Axles (1) Schedule 3 sets out the axle load limits for each type of axle or axle group. (2) Two axles less than 1m apart are to be regarded as 1 axle. (3) Three axles not more than 2m apart are to be regarded as 2 axles. (4) Four axles not more than 3.2m apart are to be regarded as 3 axles. 11 Measurement of distance between axles For this regulation, the distance between axles is measured between the centres of the wheels mounted on the axles and parallel to the length of the vehicle.

s 11A 16 Transport Operations (Road Use Management)Regulation 1995 s 11A Part 2A Guidelines and permits 11A Guidelines and permits for vehicles (1) The chief executive may issue— (a) a guideline, in an approved form, for the safe movement on a road of a type of vehicle; or (b) a permit for the safe movement on a road of a particular vehicle or type of vehicle. (2) The commissioner may issue only a permit for the safe movement on a road of a particular oversize vehicle or type of oversize vehicle. (3) The chief executive or commissioner may issue a permit by phone, fax, radio or another form of communication if the chief executive or commissioner considers it necessary because of urgent circumstances. (4) A guideline or permit can not allow a combination to be more than— (a) for a combination consisting of 1 motor vehicle—the motor vehicle’s GCM; or (b) for a combination consisting of more than 1 motor vehicle—the total of each motor vehicle’s GCM. (5) The matters a guideline or permit may relate to include the following— (a) the roads on which the vehicle may be driven; (b) the maximum permissible dimensions of the vehicle together with any load; (c) the maximum permissible mass of— (i) the vehicle together with any load; or (ii) parts of the vehicle; (d) any permissible or requisite modifications to the vehicle;

(6) The roads on which the vehicle may be driven may be shown on a map in the guideline. 11AA Statutory condition on guidelines and permits for oversized vehicles (1) A guideline for a type of oversize vehicle or a permit for a particular oversize vehicle or type of oversize vehicle mentioned in section 11A is granted on the conditions stated in schedule 3AA for the guideline or permit. (2) A condition imposed under subsection (1) applies despite any other provision of the guideline or permit. 11B Permit contents and conditions (1) A permit, other than a permit issued under alternative arrangements under section 11BA, must state— (a) if the permit relates to a particular vehicle, the registration number of the vehicle it relates to; and (b) the name and address of the person the permit is issued to; and

s 11BA 18 Transport Operations (Road Use Management)Regulation 1995 s 11BA (c) how long the permit is in force for; and (d) the conditions of the permit. (2) The conditions of a permit may include a condition requiring the permit holder— (a) to pay the reasonable costs incurred by the State in relation to the issue of the permit, including for example, the costs of— (i) assessing the roads the vehicle is to be driven on; or (ii) preparing any relevant plans and cost estimates; or (iii) preparing or strengthening road transport infrastructure; or (iv) repairing, replacing or reconstructing road transport infrastructure; or (v) ensuring the permit conditions are observed; or (b) to deposit an amount reasonably required by the chief executive as security for the costs mentioned in paragraph (a). (3) If, no later than 28 days after the permit ends, the chief executive decides an amount deposited as a condition of the permit is not sufficient security for the costs, the chief executive may require a further amount to be deposited within a reasonable stated time. (4) The chief executive must, within 28 days after the permit ends— (a) calculate the costs incurred by the State; and (b) if the costs incurred are less than the amount deposited as security for costs, refund the difference to the permit holder. 11BA Alternative arrangements for permits (1) The chief executive may enter into arrangements with persons for the issue to them of permits other than in accordance with the requirements of sections 11A and 11B.

s 11C 19 Transport Operations (Road Use Management)Regulation 1995 s 11C (2) The arrangements— (a) may only be made in circumstances in which it is impracticable for the requirements of sections 11A and 11B to be fully complied with; and (b) must provide for compliance with sections 11A and 11B to the greatest practicable extent. Example of arrangements under subsections (1) and (2) — The issue of a permit for a particular journey using a 2 stage process for the issue of the permit that involves— (a) the identification, in a document of general application, of the contents of permits to apply for all journeys of a particular type; and (b) completing the issue of the permit for the particular journey by the electronic issue of a ticket. 11C Driving under guideline or permit (1) A person who is— (a) driving a vehicle in accordance with a current guideline, or a permit, issued for the vehicle; and (b) if a permit has been issued for the vehicle, carrying the permit in the vehicle; is exempt from complying with the provisions of this regulation for which the guideline or permit states it is a means of alternative compliance. (2) However, a guideline or permit that is a means of alternative compliance for section 62B need not state that fact. (3) A person must ensure a sign or warning device that is required under a guideline or permit is not displayed on a vehicle being driven by the person unless the person is driving the vehicle for the purpose for which the guideline or permit was issued. Maximum penalty—30 penalty units.

s 11CA 20 Transport Operations (Road Use Management)Regulation 1995 s 11CA Part 2B Vehicle dimensions 11CA Meaning of rear overhang and rear overhang line for pt 2B (1) This section defines rear overhang and rear overhang line for this part. (2) The rear overhang of a vehicle is the distance between the rear of the vehicle and the rear overhang line of the vehicle.
