Following is an example of a set of CRI's with an explanation of what should be checked for:
The Explanations
1. Go Right
Simply turn right at the first opportunity into a public road. Ensure that it is
a public road and not prohibited by any ASR.
2. Go left at HILL RD
At an intersection where there is a sign HILL RD, do a left turn. Check that the
sign is letter perfect (ie: not HILL ROAD); also that the sign is inside the
boundaries of the intersection.
3. Go right into SMITH ROAD
This is a trap as it is not possible to turn into a sign. Carry on using whatever
road rule or overriding instruction is in use until you find a check which deletes this
instruction.
4. Proceed ahead at AUCKLAND 12 km
This is a trap as the sign quoted is AUCKLAND 12. As the 'km' is not in capitals
it can therefore play no part in the sign. Just keep going until you get a delete check or
a sign AUCKLAND 12.
5. Go left at tee intersection
Go left at tee shaped intersection as shown in the En Route
section.
6. Cross WHITFORD BRIDGE
This is a trap as it is not possible to physically cross a sign. Just keep going
until you find a delete check.
7. Go left at AUCKLAND THAMES HAMILTON
Ensure that the sign concerned is only one sign and not two. Also, that the sign
is within the boundaries of the intersection.
8. Go right at JONES RD CITY OF MANUKAU
This is a trap because local body names can play no part in the identification of
a sign. Just keep looking for a delete check.
9. Go right at REDOUET RD
Ensure that the sign quoted is as it appears in the CRI's. If not, carry on until
you find either the correct sign or a delete check.
10. Go left at HOWICK 4 KM
Ensure that the sign quoted is letter perfect with the one quoted in the CRI's;
however, the lettering on the sign may be "HOWICK 4 km'. This is okay because the CRI
must have the sign in capitals to indicate it is a sign, but the letter on the sign can be
in lower case.
