ROAD TRANSPORT (MASS, LOADING AND ACCESS) REGULATION 2005 - REG 49

49 Mass limits for motor lorries (except existing motor lorries)

(1) For the purposes of this Division, the
"mass limit" of a motor lorry (except an existing motor lorry) is:

(a) the GVM of the lorry, except in the case of an articulated vehicle, or

(b) in the case of an articulated vehicle, the GCM of the motor lorry.

(2) For the purposes of subclause (1), the GVM or GCM of a motor lorry that has not been altered since manufacture is the mass recorded for that type of motor lorry by the Authority as the GVM or GCM, respectively.

(3) However, if the Authority has not recorded a GCM for a type of motor lorry that is an articulated vehicle, but the Authority has recorded a GVM for its type of prime mover as a standard table top motor lorry, for the purposes of subclause (1) the GCM of the articulated vehicle (if unaltered since manufacture) is 1.67 times the GVM recorded for that type of standard table top motor lorry.

(4) In the case of a motor lorry (except an existing motor lorry) that has been altered since manufacture or (though unaltered since manufacture) is one to which no mass applies as referred to in subclause (2) or (3), the mass limit of the lorry is that determined under clause 52 (or, in the case of a visiting motor lorry, in accordance with the law for the time being in force in the State or Territory where the lorry is registered).
