Lamps, Signals, Reflectors etc.

Lighting requirements (lamps, reflectors and marking plates) vary substantially with the type of vehicle and its date of
manufacture. For newer vehicles and optionally for older vehicles, details of the requirements together with the type,
number, location, colour, operation and adjustment of lamps and reflectors are set out in the Third Edition Australian
Design Rules (ADRs). Alternatively, for vehicles not required to meet the Third Edition ADRs, the requirements specified
in the standards for registration for that particular type of vehicle should
be applied. Generally, all motor vehicles must be fitted with headlamps, stop lamps, front and rear position lamps, a
number plate lamp and turn signal lamps. All other vehicles (trailers etc.) require rear position lamps, stop lamps, a
number plate lamp and turn signal lamps.

Exhaust and emission controls.

The exhaust arrangement of a vehicle should not go through the lodge or any traveler region and should be liberated from
spills. Buildup channel openings are not spills. The exhaust framework should be fitted with a successful quieting gadget
and all exhaust gases should pass through the gadget. All mountings should be secure and the exhaust framework should
have sufficient freedom between all different pieces of the vehicle and the street. Unshielded pieces of an exhaust
framework, other than the power source, should not project past the profile of the vehicle other than on the underside. The
power source should be found in order to stay away from direct passage of gases into the traveler compartment and
should not reach out past the arrangement of the vehicle. See VSI 8 for more data on depletes.

rust, deterioration, distortion or any other condition which could lead to structural failure of the vehicle or adversely affect
the performance of safety related features. The body and fittings of all vehicles must be free from any damage, which
might increase the risk or severity of injury to any occupant, pedestrian or other road user. The body must also be free of
any damage likely to allow the entry of exhaust gases into the passenger area.

Engine and driveline.

All mountings, sections and fastenings vital for the protected activity of the vehicle should be secure also, liberated from
harm, crumbling or unusual twisting. All shafts, splines, all inclusive joints, support direction, tail shaft watches and other
drive line parts should be in acceptable condition and liberated from exorbitant wear and vibration. The force unit, grip
framework, transmission framework, differentials, hub lodgings and all related pipelines should be appropriately fixed
and liberated from trickling or streaming oil spills onto the street, exhaust framework or brake erosion surfaces.
