The Australian road rules (on which each states rules are based) :-

RR 97 Road access signs
RR 177 Stopping on a freeway

There are also rules that reference these rules such as the exceptions
for a garbage truck stopping does not include an exception to RR 177

Any sign that has the following is considered a freeway :-

freeway
motorway
tollway
expressway
