Accident Compensation Corporation v Downer New Zealand Limited
- Citation
- [2012] NZACC 390
- Court
- District Court
The road roller was being used primarily to compact the roadway (a use other than as a means of conveyance); therefore s35(2)(b) excludes classification as a motor vehicle injury and the injuries are work-related personal injuries under s28, so the primary ACC decision granting work-related cover is reinstated.
