Thoughts that make you go "hmmm..." This article by Eric de Place looks at civic government and the laws for the provision of parking at businesses. Why do they mandate parking at drinking establishments? Perhaps parking should be forbidden there, after all, we don't want people to drink and drive!

I would appreciate your comments on the lack of any formal vehicle inspection program in BC. I understand that there is testing for vehicle emissions in the greater urban areas on the Lower Mainland, but there is no proactive testing for facets of vehicle safety such as brake condition, tire wear, light function, bodywork and frame rusting etc.
Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement (CVSE) has received numerous complaints and enquiries regarding vehicles operating on the highway without the driver and / or passenger doors in place. Any vehicle operating on the highway without doors represents a serious safety concern for the occupants as side intrusion protection and passenger containment would be compromised in the event of a collision.
