Crimes Act 1961

Procedure - Arrest

317AB: Offences relating to stopping vehicles under section 317A

You could also call this:

“This explains what can happen if you don't stop your car when the police tell you to.”

This section of the law, called ‘Offences relating to stopping vehicles under section 317A’, used to be part of the Crimes Act 1961. However, it no longer exists. On 1 October 2012, this section was removed from the law. The reason it was removed was because of a change made by another law called the Search and Surveillance Act 2012. If you want to know more about why this change happened, you can look at section 325(6) of that Act.
