Road Safety Road Rules 2017

A driver must not park continuously on a length of road, or in an area, to which a permissive parking sign applies for longer than the period indicated by information on or with the sign or, if rule 206 applies to the driver, the period allowed under that rule.

If a permissive parking sign does not indicate a period and does not indicate that it applies at particular times, or at particular times on particular days, a driver may, at any time, park continuously on a length of road, or in an area, to which the sign applies, unless—

another parking control sign applies to the length of road or area; and

the driver is prohibited from parking on the length of road, or in the area, under these Rules.

For subrule (1), a driver parks continuously on a length of road, or in an area, to which a permissive parking sign applies, from the time when the driver parks on the length of road, or in the area, until the driver, or another driver, moves the vehicle off the length of road, or out of the area, to which the permissive parking sign applies.

Subrule (1) does not apply if—

the driver is using a vehicle for the purpose of the operation of a detection device prescribed for the purposes of section 66 of the Road Safety Act 1986; or

the driver's vehicle is—

a trailer carrying a relocatable digital RSC or mobile digital RSC; or

towing a trailer carrying a relocatable digital RSC or mobile digital RSC.
