§ 25001 Definitions Apply Throughout Division

This rule says that any word that is defined in this part of the law means the same thing everywhere in this division, unless something else in the law says it should be different.

Key Takeaways

•Definitions in this part are used the same way everywhere in the division.
•The rule can be ignored if a specific part of the law says a word means something different.
•Helps keep the meaning of words clear and consistent.

Example

The law defines "vehicle" as any motorized transport. Because of this rule, every other section in the division that talks about a "vehicle" will use that same definition, unless a specific section says "vehicle" means something else for that part.

So if a later section talks about parking rules for "vehicles," it will follow the original definition, unless that section adds a special note changing the meaning.
