#### 111 Authorised person may move vehicle (1) This regulation applies to a vehicle used at an airport if: (a) the vehicle is used in contravention of a parking control provision and its driver cannot be found within a reasonable time after such inquiries by an authorised person as are reasonable in the circumstances; or (b) its driver refuses to comply with a direction under subregulation 110(1) or (2). (2) This regulation also applies to a vehicle that appears to be abandoned on the landside of an airport if its driver cannot be found within a reasonable time after such inquiries by an authorised person as are reasonable in the circumstances. (3) An authorised person for an airport (with whatever assistance is reasonably necessary) may move a vehicle to which this regulation applies to a place within the airport approved for the purpose by the airport‑operator company if: (a) the authorised person considers that the vehicle is causing interference with the normal flow of traffic or with the operation of the airport or a permit zone at the airport; or (b) under subregulation (2), this regulation applies to the vehicle. (4) If the driver of a vehicle to which this regulation applies cannot be found, and an authorised person moves the vehicle under subregulation (3), the authorised person must, as soon as practicable: (a) give the vehicle registration authority for the State or Territory in which the vehicle is registered (if known) a notice in writing that: (i) identifies the vehicle; and (ii) states that the vehicle has been moved and where it can be recovered; and (b) do whatever else is reasonable to find the driver or registered owner of the vehicle and tell the driver or owner: (i) that the vehicle has been moved, and where it can be recovered; and (ii) that the vehicle may only be recovered by the owner or by a person acting for the owner. (5) A vehicle registration authority for a State or Territory that receives a notice under subregulation (4) may, in accordance with the laws of the State or Territory, use the information in the notice to notify the registered owner of the matters set out in the notice. (6) If an authorised person moves a vehicle under this regulation, neither the authorised person, nor any person who assists him or her to do so, nor the airport‑operator company, is liable for any loss of, or damage to, the vehicle that occurs: (a) while it is being reasonably moved; or (b) after it is moved and before it is recovered by or for its owner.
