15  Exercise of powers by authorised officers
 (1) An authorised officer has the powers conferred on authorised officers by a road law.
       Drafting note: A jurisdiction may include provisions enabling an authorised officer of another jurisdiction to exercise powers as an authorised officer without the need to be appointed as such.
 (2) However, the Authority may, by instrument in writing applicable to a specified authorised officer or each authorised officer of a specified class:
 (a) provide that the officer may not exercise specified powers; or
 (b) provide that the officer may exercise specified powers only; or
 (c) otherwise restrict the powers that the officer may exercise, including (for example) by limiting the circumstances in which the officer may exercise any powers conferred on the officer.
 (3) In addition, the regulations may identify powers that may only be exercised by authorised officers, or classes of authorised officers, who are specifically empowered by the Authority under subsection (2)(b) to exercise them.
