Accuracy of time measurement

There are quite strict requirements in the Rulebook for the measuring of time at Track racing competitions. For Rad racing, there is a section 3D.16 "Accuracy of results" in the Rulebook, but it does describe published time resolution rather than accuracy. I don't see anything about the accuracy of the time measurement. Since the published results are rounded down to seconds, I think the requirements to timing equipment for Road can be more relaxed than in Track with its 0.01 seconds resolution of published results. Still, I think we need to have some requirements to both equipment and procedures to measure the times for road races.
