Good morning! I have another question from a Four Wheel Drive Association member: "I read about 4x4s getting ticketed for tire poke, but in the summer I constantly see hotrods driving on the road with no fenders at all; anyone know why hotrods don't need their tires covered but 4x4s do?"

I am wrapping a Tesla x90D with a vinyl vehicle wrap to promote our business. I am trying to understand the laws of where i can or can't apply the vehicle wrap materials. I do no see anything outlined in the Motor Vehicle Act. The Tesla has a very high windshield reaching almost back to the mid point of the roof.
The beginning of this month was not a good one for many road users in the province with the weather related closure of 3 major east - west highway routes. Road maintenance contractors generally maintain our roads in good condition for safe driving, but when weather overwhelms their resources it should not be a surprise when road closures are the result. If you choose to travel during major weather events your mantra should be Know Before You Go or perhaps even simply Don't Go.
