Road Traffic (Administration) Act 2008

If a person or club requests the Minister to temporarily suspend the operation of any provision of a road law for the purpose of enabling a race meeting or speed test to take place, the Minister may —

refuse to suspend the provision for such purpose; or

subject to subsection (2), by notice published in the Gazette temporarily suspend the provision for such purpose.

The Minister is not to temporarily suspend the operation of any provision unless the Minister has first obtained the consent of the local government of the district within which the race meeting or speed test will be held.

Any temporary suspension of a provision under this section is subject to such conditions as are specified by the Minister.

Where a person does not comply with a condition under which a provision is temporarily suspended under this section, the provision is to be taken to have effect in relation to that person.

Despite subsection (4), a person who does not comply with a condition under which a provision is temporarily suspended under this section commits an offence.

The Minister may delegate to the Commissioner of Police or a police officer specified in the instrument of delegation all or any of the powers conferred upon the Minister under subsection (1).
