Crimes Act 1961

Procedure - Arrest

317AA: Powers incidental to stopping vehicles under section 317A

You could also call this:

"Additional actions a police officer can take when they ask a vehicle to stop"

This part of the law has been removed. It used to be about the powers that come with stopping vehicles under section 317A, but it's no longer in effect. The government took it out of the Crimes Act 1961 on 1 October 2012. If you want to know more about why this change happened, you can look at section 325(6) of the Search and Surveillance Act 2012.
