ROAD SAFETY ROAD RULES 2017 - REG 125

Unreasonably obstructing drivers or pedestrians

    (1)     A driver must not unreasonably obstruct the path of another driver or a pedestrian.

Penalty:     2 penalty units.

Note

"Driver" includes a person in control of a vehicle—see the definition of drive in the dictionary.

    (2)     For this rule, a driver does not unreasonably obstruct the path of another driver or a pedestrian only because—

        (a)     the driver is stopped in traffic; or

        (b)     the driver is driving more slowly than other vehicles (unless the driver is driving abnormally slow in the circumstances).

Example of a driver driving abnormally slow

A driver driving at a speed of 20 kilometres per hour on a length of road to which a speed-limit of 80 kilometres per hour applies when there is no reason for the driver to drive at that speed on the length of road.
