(1) In an emergency such as a fire, explosion or natural disaster (including a drought), the Authority may exempt a single motor vehicle or a combination, or its driver or operator, from a requirement of these Regulations, if the Authority is satisfied that: (a) the exemption will not result in an unreasonable danger to other road users; and (b) the single motor vehicle or the combination is being used, or is intended to be used, to protect life or property, or to restore communication or the supply of energy or water or services such as sewage disposal, or to provide drought relief. (2) An exemption may be subject to conditions imposed by the Authority. (3) The Authority must make a written record of the exemption, and any conditions to which it is subject, but may cause it to be communicated orally to the operator.
