One of the most recent items for discussion in an RV forum that I belong to was the issue of leaving your engine running while refuelling.
The owners with diesels say because of the low flash point of diesel that they never shut their engines off because they need to cool their turbo.
I’m hoping to get a clear answer to a question I’ve always had about clearing the intersection on a yellow light. It seems to me that you could easily get a ticket for proceeding yet just as easily get found at fault for not proceeding.
Question: Asking for a friend... Okay, not a friend, just something that popped up in a Buy & Sell group I manage. Seems sketchy to me, selling JUST the plate, papers, and window frame, but before I boot the guy I just want to make sure.
As we approach 80 we get a notification from ICBC to book an appointment with our GP to review our health issues and to see if we are still able to drive.
Here is my complaint.
If someone is driving without a license and gets their friend's car impounded for 30 days, is there a way to get it out sooner? And is there any trouble for the owner of the vehicle (through their insurance or anything) for having someone drive the vehicle without a license and getting it impounded?
Question: How many people can legally sit in a moving motorhome? Does everyone need seatbelts?
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?"
My 1970s VeloSolex moped has a 49 cc engine. It does not need clutching or shifting. It has top speed of about 30 km/h (down hill with the wind behind you). I don't know the weight but I can pick it up and carry it. The wheels are more than 25.4 cm in diameter.
I was in a situation that could have been very ugly. I was waiting to turn right at an uncontrolled intersection. I was waiting for traffic to clear from the lane that I was about to turn into.
Question: I often have to use a complex intersection to get to where I am going in Nanaimo. It's at the junctions of the Old Island Highway, Jingle Pot and Shenton Roads. I use the right hand turn lane on Shenton to join the traffic on Jingle Pot and move over a lane to be able to turn left at the traffic lights onto the Old Island Highway.
