§ 6000 Definitions For Construction Terms

• •This section explains how to understand the words used in this part of the law.
• •If a word is defined in this chapter, that definition is what you should use.
• •Sometimes, the way a word is used might change its meaning, but usually, the definitions here apply.

Imagine you're reading a rule about 'vehicles' in this part of the law.

If this chapter says a 'vehicle' is anything with wheels that moves people, then that's what it means, even if you think a bike isn't a vehicle. But if the rule talks about 'vehicles' in a way that clearly means only cars, then the definition might not apply.
