Division 3—Enforcement powers
Note: The enforcement powers provided by this Division vary according to the risk category involved. The principal features are as follows:
Minor risk breaches
 The enforcement officer may authorise the driver to continue the journey (conditionally or unconditionally), but in particular circumstances the officer may direct the driver to rectify breaches then and there or to move the vehicle or combination to a suitable location (within a limited distance) and not proceed until breaches are rectified.
Substantial risk breaches
 The enforcement officer must direct the driver not to proceed until breaches are rectified, but in particular circumstances (or acting under particular instructions) the officer may direct the driver to move the vehicle or combination to the nearest suitable location and not proceed until breaches are rectified.
Severe risk breaches
 The enforcement officer must direct the driver not to proceed until breaches are rectified, but in limited particular circumstances (or acting under particular instructions) the officer may direct the driver to move the vehicle or combination to the nearest safe location and not proceed until breaches are rectified. Directions may instead be given to the operator of the vehicle or combination, who is required to ensure that the direction is carried out.
