I am trying to get confirmation on the law regarding chain requirements for a BC commercial 55 passenger bus for winter driving.
The wording of the law is ambiguous. It states that school buses must carry chains and Commercial transport trucks must carry chains when driving on the highway, but that passenger vehicles are not required to carry chains.
All freeways in BC appear to have cross over sections that connect the separated highways. These sections all have do not enter signs on each side. What type of vehicle or driver is permitted to enter these sections of the highway?
I was wondering when police have the power or ability to take or suspend a driver's licence or impound their vehicle.
Essentially, what are police powers to immediately prevent a driver from driving after a traffic stop?
Wondering how long you must have an interlock device installed in BC if you have had two impaired convictions? all i can find is 12 months? is that correct?
Can anyone please tell me if there is any provision in law to be allowed to use a siren type of alarm noise generated by say a bike alarm to be used as part of your horn mechanism.
Picture this: The colours of the dawn sky are magnificent as the sun rises over the mountainous mainland, the blue ocean below, the fresh morning air on your face, nothin’ but open road ahead - no cars to be seen, spreadeagled-reclined-on your Harley, not a care in the world, slowly cruising on the mountain pass highway. Beauty. Perfection.
A friend tells me I might be breaking the law by having an air horn on my bike.
every week or so, I haul a load of dead fish to another town, in a 53 foot tanker. This trailer is loaded by the fish producers, then it is sealed, brought out to the highway, where I pick it up and begin my 3 hour trip to deliver.
I don't know if you drive much along Hammond Bay Rd, but it can be pretty frustrating on garbage day, or even morning commute on school days, with buses stopping very 100 - 200 yds.
I dread the new "automatic" garbage trucks which I think will take far longer to pick up cans and put them down using hydraulics, rather than arm power.
I have a tenant that is elderly and her vehicle is parked on the street and uninsured.
The mechanical soundness of the vehicle is seriously questionable. The vehicle owner said that the brakes are not working and she had to use the emergency brake to stop the vehicle in the past.
There have been times that she was so heavily medicated, people were surprised to see her get in her vehicle and drive away.
