4J Roads and road‑related areas
(1) Each reference in this Act to a road includes a reference to a road‑related area. (2) Road and road‑related area have the same meanings as they have in the Australian Road Rules.
Note: [Drafting note 1: Jurisdictions may modify these definitions to the extent that they are inconsistent with their requirements for the application of authorised officer powers.
Note: Drafting note 2: While the definition of road reflects usage of this term in the national road transport laws, it was not specifically defined in the Road Transport Reform (Dangerous Goods) Act 1995 (Cwlth) or the Road Transport Reform (Dangerous Goods) Regulations 1997 (Cwlth). Its inclusion is not intended to effect an expansion or restriction of the applicaton of this Law or the Model Subordinate Law beyond that which was previously the case in each jurisdiction.]
