Purpose and effect of Division

         (1)   The purpose of this Division is to create a system of infringement notices for certain offences against these Regulations as an alternative to prosecution.

         (2)   This Division does not:

                (a)    require an infringement notice to be issued to a person for an offence; or

               (b)    affect the liability of a person to be prosecuted for an offence if an infringement notice is not issued to the person for the offence; or

                (c)    prevent the issue of 2 or more infringement notices to a person for an offence; or

               (d)    affect the liability of a person to be prosecuted for an offence if the person does not comply with an infringement notice for the offence; or

                (e)    limit or otherwise affect the penalty that may be imposed by a court on a person convicted of an offence.

         (3)   If 2 or more infringement notices are issued to a person for the same offence, the person's liability to be prosecuted for the offence ceases if the person pays the infringement notice penalty for any of the notices.
