Examples in this law are there to help you understand what the law means. But they’re not the actual law. They just show you how the law might work.
If you see an example in this law, it’s only there to explain the actual rules. The example doesn’t change what the rules say or limit them in any way.
Sometimes, an example might seem different from what the actual rule says. If this happens, you should always follow what the rule says, not the example.

If an example and a provision to which it relates are inconsistent, the provision prevails.
