(b) A person may not access an airport by vehicle from property outside the airport boundary other than on a public road, trail, or way provided for that purpose and not posted by the department as closed to airport access, except as specifically provided under an airport boundary crossing permit issued under 17 AAC 45.285.
(c) Subject to 17 AAC 45.030, an aircraft operated on an airport has the right-of-way over a vehicle on the airport. The operator of a vehicle on an airport may not interfere with or cause a hazard to the movement of aircraft on the airport.

On an airport roadway or area for which the airport manager has not posted a speed limit, a person may not operate a vehicle in excess of 25 miles per hour. This subsection does not apply to a person operating an emergency vehicle responding to an emergency.
