42   Regulations for increasing lower limits

(cf model provisions, s 79)

(1)  The regulations may specify a different lower limit, or a different method of calculating a lower limit, for a substantial risk breach or a severe risk breach of a mass, dimension or load restraint requirement to which a provision of Subdivision 2 applies.

(2)  The regulations must not specify a limit that is lower than that provided by the relevant provision of Subdivision 2.

(3)  The regulations may provide that a specified limit or method applies generally or in specified classes of cases.

Note. This section enables higher breakpoints to be applied because of there being less risk associated with a particular breach.
