Western Australia's Department of Planning & Infrustructure have just released that States new driver training manual "DRIVE SAFE".
You can download the new version here, Pdf 2.5Mb. http://www.dpi.wa.gov.au/mediaFiles/...vesafebook.pdf The new handbook contains numerous legislative and road safety advice changes and updates from the previous editions. Indeed Page 82 "Emergencies & Crashes" tutorial will seem similar to a certain item advocacy on my part, except that CB radio use is suggested a la SA tutorial which has also been updated. Page 51 relates to WA specific rules relating the use of front and rear fog lights. Remember, WA enforces that front fog light use is restricted to hazardous weather conditions like NSW, AND THAT they may only be used in conjunction with a vehicles park lights in WA. This operation is ideal for seriously reduced conditions by incidentially. Pictorial reference to the speed derestriction sign is dropped. WA as with all other states is removing the remaining speed derestriction signs to comply with AS1742.4 of 1999 AND UN Convention on the matter. They can only be used again if the jurisdiction accepts the signs international meaning. If your a WA learner or experienced driver I do suggest you grab or download this document.
