Regulation 104No Trucks Signs#

  1. (1)A driver (except the driver of a bus) must not contravene a no trucks sign that has information on or with it indicating a mass if the GVM of the driver’s vehicle (or, if the driver is driving a combination, any vehicle in the combination) is more than that mass.
  2. (2)A driver (except the driver of a bus) must not contravene a no trucks sign that has information on or with it indicating a length if the length of the driver’s vehicle (or, if the driver is driving a combination, the length of the combination) is longer than that length.
  3. (3)The driver of a truck must not contravene a no trucks sign that has no information on or with it indicating a mass or length.
  4. (5)For subsections (1) to (4), a driver contravenes a no truck sign by—
  5. (a)if the sign applies to 1 or more, but not all, marked lanes on a road—driving in a marked lane while the sign applies to the lane; or
  6. (b)otherwise—driving past the sign.

Example of a no trucks sign—

Hence the following sign assembly example may allow for trucks to be banned from the right lane.

QLD Road Rules Regulation 159 (reproduced below) also appears to define the use of signs to require vehicles to use a particular lane. The relevant parts of the clause are highlighted.
