The purpose of the Vehicle Lighting Rule is to consolidate the safety requirements for vehicle lighting components currently in the Traffic Regulations 1976, as well as to propose some changes. The draft rule aims at ensuring that lighting equipment fitted to vehicles is installed correctly, meets acceptable levels of safety and complies with appropriate standards.

A copy of the draft rule may be obtained by calling the LTSA Help Desk on Freephone 0800 699 000 or by visiting the LTSA web site at
