Which doesn't describe a side window.
Noted… although surely a side window is still a
window in the context of the highlighted term?

…..or at least that's how I, as someone who has drafted legislation and legislative instruments for the Victorian Government, would interpret it? i.e. "window" being a catch all term in its ordinary meaning)
Happy to be shown otherwise though (without the angst and epithets some seem happy to dispense)

PS I am not ignoring that cars with soft tops have other than glass however given we are talking here (I thought?) about saloon and other cars with bodywork I was simply quoting the reference material as that is what was asked for? If people want to do otherwise, then go right ahead.
PPS I own a Mini with polycarbonate side and rear glass and have been clearly told by licenced vehicle inspectors that amongst other things restricting it's registerability, that the side and rear glass would need to be restored to original. That said I (a) have no interest in putting that car on full rego as it makes more sense to put in on a Rally Permit; and (b) I was only trying to help by referencing the relevant legal materials. If people want to disbelieve them, then go right ahead.. but please don't attack me. I didn't draft them (my drafting is found in rail corporations and other rail related legislation and legislative instruments).
