Rules have been grouped in Parts and Divisions so that rules on the same subject are, as far as possible, together. However, some kinds of rules are relevant in many different situations. For example, in addition to the general give way rules in Part 7, giving way at traffic lights is dealt with in Part 6 (which deals with traffic lights) and giving way at roundabouts is dealt with in Part 9 (which deals with roundabouts). This arrangement gives drivers a more complete picture of their obligations at traffic lights and roundabouts.

Note 2: Adjacent land or a road-related area can include a driveway, service station or shopping centre – see the definitions of adjacent land and road-related area. Some shopping centres may include roads - see the definition of road in rule 12 .

Note 2 for diagram: A loading zone sign may have an arrow pointing in a different direction and anything on the sign may be differently arranged – see rule 316(4) .

Note: Rule 165 provides a defence to the prosecution of a driver for an offence against a provision of Part 12 (Restrictions on stopping and parking). The defence is available, for example, if the driver needs to stop to deal with a medical or other emergency.

In the same way, because the Rules apply only to roads and road-related areas, it is not generally necessary to say in a rule that something must, or must not, be done ‘on a road’, except where the kind of road, or the place on a road, is relevant to the rule or it is necessary to exclude road-related areas.

Note 2: Rules 72 and 73 deal with giving way at an intersection (except a roundabout) without traffic lights or a stop sign, stop line, give way sign or give way line applying to the driver.

Note 2: For this rule, give way means the rider must slow down and, if necessary, stop to avoid a collision – see the definition in the dictionary.

Note 2: A driver stops on or across a driveway or way of access if any part of the vehicle is on or across the driveway or way of access – see rule 350 .

Note: The dictionary only includes a signpost definition for a word or expression if the word or expression is used in 2 or more rules of the Road Rules.

The Rules in Parts 1 to 21 are road rules that Tasmania has in common with other States and the Territories. They are part of a national scheme to provide uniform road traffic laws throughout Australia.

The rules in Part 22 are peculiar to, and apply only in, Tasmania. Although these local rules are not part of the national scheme, they have been included here so that Tasmania's road rules may be found in one place.

We have matched these chips with expertly engineered, vacuum-metallised polycarbonate reflectors, which allowed us to create a 180 degree overall beam angle. This means not only can you see far into the distance, but are also made aware of close-up hazards such as kangaroos in time to take evasive action.

4. If there are no traffic lights at the intersection, remain at the position reached under step 2 until the rider has given way to approaching drivers on the road that the rider is leaving.

The dictionary at the end of the Rules defines words and expressions that have special meanings in the Rules. It includes words and expressions that are defined elsewhere in the Rules.

Penalties can include a fine and, in some circumstances, disqualification from driving. Although the Rules are part of a national scheme to provide uniform road traffic laws throughout Australia, the penalty that may be imposed for an offence under Tasmania's Rules could be quite different to the penalty that may be imposed for the equivalent offence if committed in another jurisdiction.

Example 1 Driver going straight ahead giving way to a vehicle on the right that is going straight aheadVehicle B must give way to vehicle A

If a rule is directed to the driver of a public bus, the term ‘public bus’ is used in the rule, and the rule applies only to public buses. For examples, see Part 17 (Additional rules for drivers of trams and public buses). However, if a rule directs a driver of any vehicle to take or not take some action in relation to a bus, the term ‘bus’ is used and the rule applies to buses of all kinds. This is because, although the rule is primarily intended to apply to public buses, a public bus may not be marked in a way that makes it distinguishable from a private bus, and it is preferable from the point of view of road safety that the driver treat any bus as a public bus. For examples see Part 11, Division 7 (Passing trams and safety zones). There are also some rules that refer specifically to the drivers of all buses.

Driving to the right of the centre of the road not permitted - overtaking on a road with 2 parallel continuous dividing lines

There are a number of rules requiring a driver to give way to another driver or a pedestrian. However, under the Rules the other driver or pedestrian does not have a ‘right’ of way. Indeed, in some situations, a number of drivers may be required to give way to each other, for example at an intersection with a stop sign or give way sign on more than one of the intersecting roads. Similarly, although a driver may be required to give way to a pedestrian, the pedestrian is required under rule 236 (1) not to cause a traffic hazard by moving into the driver’s path.

Note: For this rule, give way means the driver must slow down and, if necessary stop, to avoid a collision - see the definition in the dictionary.

Note: Children’s crossing is defined in rule 80 , overtake is defined in the dictionary, and pedestrian crossing is defined in rule 81 .

Example 5 Driver turning right at a give way line does not have to give way to a vehicle turning left using a slip laneVehicle B must give way to vehicle A

The Rules apply to vehicles, animals and persons on roads and ‘road-related areas’. ‘Road-related areas’ are areas like footpaths, nature strips and parking areas. The Rules generally apply to road-related areas in the same way as they apply to roads.

Note 1: Bus and travelling along tram tracks are defined in the dictionary, road-related area is defined in rule 13 , and shoulder is defined in rule 12 .

Note: Bicycle path is defined in rule 239 , road-related area is defined in rule 13 , shared path is defined in rule 242 , and shoulder is defined in rule 12 .

Note 3: For this rule, give way means the driver must slow down and, if necessary, stop to avoid a collision – see the definition in the dictionary.

Note for diagrams: There is another permitted version of the stop here on red signal sign - see the diagram in Schedule 3 .

1. A stop sign at a break in a dividing strip dividing the part of the road used by the main body of moving vehicles from a service road.

A rule may say that it does not apply to a driver of a particular kind, or in a particular situation. This does not mean, however, that another rule will not apply to the driver in the same situation. An example is rule 95 (Emergency stopping lane only signs). A bicycle rider does not commit an offence under rule 95 by riding in an emergency stopping lane, because the rule expressly states that it does not apply to bicycle riders. However, the rider may still commit an offence by riding in the emergency stopping lane if a no bicycles sign applies to the lane (see rule 252 (No bicycles signs and markings)).

In the Rules, a reference to a ‘driver’ generally includes a rider. If a particular rule does not apply to riders, or applies only to particular kinds of riders, this is stated in the rule.

Note 2: If a no bicycles sign applies to the emergency stopping lane, the rider must not ride in the lane – see rule 252 .

Note: The symbol is, for example, used in a bicycle lane sign, a bicycle path sign and a separated footpath sign – see Schedule 2 .

Note 2: For this rule, give way means the driver must slow down and, if necessary, stop to avoid a collision – see the definition in the dictionary.

The diagram of the area speed-limit sign in Schedule 2 has the number ‘60’. A particular area speed-limit sign may have another number eg ‘50’. The different number on the sign does not prevent the sign being a reasonable likeness of the diagram.

Note 2: For this rule, give way means the driver must slow down and, if necessary, stop to avoid a collision – see the definition in the dictionary.

Note: Road is defined in rule 12 , road-related area is defined in rule 13 and T-intersection is defined in this dictionary.

Starting with the basics, this light bar is constructed with high-performance OSRAM® OSLON SSL 150 LED chips. These premium chips are extremely efficient, supremely robust, resistant to corrosion and have a 150° viewing angle, which is very important in light bar applications where beam width is key. They also have very low thermal resistance, which means they will remain cooler than other LED chips and their performance will not degrade with extended use. The 5700K colour temperature offers balanced, natural lighting for excellent visibility without causing eye strain from glare.

The rules may say that a driver ‘is turning’ at an intersection. The use of the present tense is intended to cover both the present and future aspects of the present tense. That is, it refers to a driver who is preparing to make the turn as well as a driver who is in the course of making the turn. The context will make this clear in the rule.

Most definitions of words and expressions are given in the dictionary. However, some terms are defined in the text of a rule. This is done where the word or expression is used only in that rule and nowhere else in the Rules. In addition, some definitions, particularly of areas or lengths of road that are established by traffic signs or road markings, are complex or need diagrams to be fully understood. They are placed with the basic rule that deals with the area or length of road, so that the rule and the definition (with any accompanying diagrams) can be seen and understood together. For example, see the definitions of bicycle path and separated footpath in rule 239. This also means there is no need for diagrams of the signs to appear in the dictionary as well as at the end of the rule and in the Schedules. The definitions are, however, signposted in the dictionary at the end of the Rules. Notes are also included in relevant rules drawing attention to these definitions.

Note 2: The rules for using lights when riding a bicycle or an animal-drawn vehicle at night, or in hazardous weather conditions, are:
