Queensland) must be fitted with the warning signs and warning lights required under the Transport

However, this does not apply to school buses that, immediately before 1 October 1999, complied with the Traffic Regulation 1962 schedule 1
section 18B as it was then in force and continue to comply with that section as though it were still in
force today.
