I have just received my new Off Road Vehicle (ORV) License Plate and I am having difficulty finding a place on the main frame to mount it. It is a Honda Rubicon TRX500 and the only place I could mount it with vee clamps is on the right side of the rear frame but it covers the tail light.
This video is provided by the City of Guelph, Ontario and shows drivers how to drive at an intersection where a bike box is present.
I hate to admit it, but bicycle lanes confuse me. The Motor Vehicle Act (MVA) defines them as a designated use lane that is part of the highway, but not part of the roadway. Both the province and municipalities are able to create designated use lanes and restrict who may use them through legislation. You might be surprised about what this might mean for both cyclists and drivers.
Question: I have a question about US vehicles on vacation in BC. We were stopped in a large roadcheck on the long weekend and checked by the Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement (CVSE) people.
Question: Several weeks ago the media (including ICBC) reported over and over that cyclists have the "right of way". Whether it was the editing or just ICBC's position, there was no elaboration on what that exactly means.
Something that I am seeing more frequently when leaving the Superstore here in Courtenay, and I wonder if you are seeing it down your way. The link below shows the grey car in a left turning lane and when that driver receives the advanced left-turning signal, then turns onto Ryan Road heading toward the Island Hwy bypass. The lane to his right as you can see goes straight onto Sandwick Rd.
I remember what I was a teenager (yes, that was a few years ago) working in my father's service station. The latest safety gadget in new vehicles was a buzzer that warned the driver when seatbelts were not fastened. That's a good idea, right?
The YouTube description of this video says that "Simulated crash tests show the importance of proper child restraint installation. Most parents don't realize they need to use the top tethers for forward-facing child restraints. Attaching the top tether keeps the restraint from pitching too far forward in a crash putting children at risk of head or neck injuries. Tethers are key to getting the most protection from a child restraint."
If you intend to operate your off road vehicle (ORV) anywhere on public lands after November 1, 2015 you must register it through ICBC. When the vehicle is registered an off road vehicle licence plate or sticker will be issued and must be displayed.
I was told by a Costco employee that according to the laws of BC if you buy 2 new all season tires (other 2 still in very good condition) that the new tires must be placed on the rear of vehicle regardless of whether your car is a front or real wheel drive; otherwise, if you get in an accident you insurance will be invalid? Is this correct?
