Australian Road Rules
Updated: 18 February 2009
|
This is the latest version of the Australian Road Rules and incorporates the amendments approved by the Australian Transport Council (ATC) up to and including January 2008. Please note that the Australian Road Rules are model Rules only and have no legal effect. They form the basis of Road Rules of each Australian state and territory.
Amendments to the 2008 version of the Australian Road Rules were drafted by the National Transport Commission (NTC). Please note that this consolidated version of the Australian Road Rules has prepared by the NTC for the convenience of readers.
The National Transport Commission has taken care to ensure the accuracy of this version; however readers are advised that the official version of the Australian Road Rules with all amendments is located in the Federal Register of Legislative Instruments (Commonwealth) http://www.frli.gov.au.

The Federal Register of Legislative Instruments (FRLI) was established on 1 January 2005 under section 20 of the Legislative Instruments Act 2003 and is maintained by the Attorney-General's Department. The FRLI is a repository of Commonwealth legislative instruments, explanatory statements and compilations of legislative instruments in electronic form. The FRLI is an authorative source for legislative instruments and compilations of legislative instruments.
FRLI accommodates a requirement under the Inter-Governmental Agreement for Regulatory and Operational Reform in Road, Rail and Intermodal Transport for the Australian Road Rules and amendments to have a single reference point.
