That's wrong, trev.
130 - Keeping to the left on a multi-lane road
Keeping left
When driving on any multi-lane road with a speed limit over 80km/h, you must keep out of the right lane unless:
you are overtaking or turning right, or
all lanes are congested.
If the right lane is a transit lane, this rule applies to the lane immediately to the left of the transit lane.

Altho I'm not quite sure why they have this detail under the heading 'freeways' when it applies to any multi-lane roads over 80. Plenty of roads over 80 that aren't freeway.
