- Court of Appeal
Leave to bring a second appeal was declined because the applicant failed to establish an arguable question of general or public importance or a risk of miscarriage of justice; the Court accepted Doogue J correctly treated r9 as the governing rule for speed signage and properly applied r9.2(2) exception such that no legal requirement for repeater signs arose on the facts, and the absence of fault defence was not made out given the applicant had passed an 80 km/h sign earlier and failed to take reasonable care.
