sch.8-sec.3 Warning lights and delineators if load projecting from vehicle

If a load projects more than 150mm beyond a side of a class 1 heavy vehicle, and the projection is less than 500mm thick from top to bottom— a warning light must be attached to the vehicle; and 2 delineators must be attached to the projection in the way stated in subsection (2) on each side of the vehicle on which the load projects more than 150mm. For subsection (1) (b) , the delineators must be attached in the following way on each side of the vehicle on which the load projects more than 150mm— at least 1 delineator must be attached to the front of the projection and at least 1 delineator must be attached to the rear of the projection; a delineator attached to the front of the projection must be attached so that its reflective surface is facing forward of the vehicle; a delineator attached to the rear of the projection must be attached so that its reflective surface is facing rearward from the vehicle. In this section— delineator means a yellow, rigid piece of material commonly known as a ‘delineator’ that— is at least 300mm long and at least 300mm wide; and complies with class 1, 2, 400 or 100 of the version of AS/NZS 1906 ‘Retroreflective materials and devices for road traffic control purposes’ applying to the delineator at the delineator’s date of manufacture. sch 8 s 3 amd 2021 SL No. 9 s 6 (1) (sch.8-sec.3-ssec.1) If a load projects more than 150mm beyond a side of a class 1 heavy vehicle, and the projection is less than 500mm thick from top to bottom— a warning light must be attached to the vehicle; and 2 delineators must be attached to the projection in the way stated in subsection (2) on each side of the vehicle on which the load projects more than 150mm. (sch.8-sec.3-ssec.2) For subsection (1) (b) , the delineators must be attached in the following way on each side of the vehicle on which the load projects more than 150mm— at least 1 delineator must be attached to the front of the projection and at least 1 delineator must be attached to the rear of the projection; a delineator attached to the front of the projection must be attached so that its reflective surface is facing forward of the vehicle; a delineator attached to the rear of the projection must be attached so that its reflective surface is facing rearward from the vehicle. (sch.8-sec.3-ssec.3) In this section— delineator means a yellow, rigid piece of material commonly known as a ‘delineator’ that— is at least 300mm long and at least 300mm wide; and complies with class 1, 2, 400 or 100 of the version of AS/NZS 1906 ‘Retroreflective materials and devices for road traffic control purposes’ applying to the delineator at the delineator’s date of manufacture.
