There appears to be an error in the draft Traffic Sign
regulation. It uses metric measures throughout except
for the following definition of 'abnormal transport
unit':

"(a) a motor vehicle or a vehicle combination- 
(i) the overall length of which, inclusive of the load
(if any) on the vehicle or the combination, exceeds 61
feet 6 inches; or 
(ii) the overall width of which, inclusive of the load
(if any) on the vehicle or the combination, exceeds 9
feet 6 inches"

Nitpicking and perhaps unimportant to the public, but
since the regulation is a draft, it may be possible to
get it changed. I pointed this out in a phone call
(along with other comments about the draft e.g. the
problems of the abbreviation 'm') but got the
impression that my comments were not going to be heeded.
