Road Rules 2014

A road marking on the surface of a road applies to a person on the road unless the position of the road marking indicates that it does not apply to the person.

Examples.

1

If a driver is driving on a road that is not a multi-lane road or one-way road, a road marking to the right of the centre of the road does not apply to the driver.

2

If a driver is driving in a marked lane of a multi-lane road, a road marking in another marked lane does not apply to the driver.

3

At an intersection, or on a roundabout, road markings indicating the edge of a marked lane for use by traffic coming from another direction do not apply to the driver.

Note 1.

Road marking is defined in the Dictionary.

Note 2.

A person may, under another rule, be exempt from complying with particular road markings—see, for example, rules 134, 138, 139, 147 and 150.
