ROAD TRANSPORT (MASS, DIMENSIONS AND LOADING) ACT 2009 (NO. 22 OF 2009) - SECT 104

Purpose and operation—pt 2.2

    (1)     The main purpose of this part is to make provision for compliance with, and enforcement of, Australian heavy vehicle road laws in circumstances in which a load is, or may be, a factor in a breach or suspected breach of a mass, dimension or loading requirement.

    (2)     This part does not limit the operation of other provisions of this Act, or any other road transport legislation, in relation to a breach or suspected breach of a mass, dimension or loading requirement.

Note     A laden heavy vehicle or heavy combination could also be subject to other compliance and enforcement provisions under the road transport legislation because the vehicle or combination might fail to comply with legislative provisions about mass or dimensions even if the load is disregarded.
