Does a vehicle with GVWR 14968 kgs require the driver to maintain a pre-trip/post-trip inspection and a daily log book? This flat bed truck is not equipped with air brakes and only requires a class 5 licence to drive. At times, it may be used to travel approx. 120 km (round trip) in the greater Vancouver area.

Hello, I had a question here that I have looked for hours on the internet and can not find an answer to. Let me give you a little background first;
A few years ago I had two 24 hour suspensions for drugs as an N driver. Now because I was an N driver I was suspended further for another year all together.
In mid July I was driving on a rural back road on Vancouver Island, heading into town to do a few personal errands. The vehicle I was driving was a 2008 Toyota Sienna van. On this particular day it was my second time driving the van, and I was still not used to the amount of steering input that was required to turn it, as I had been driving a Civic since I got my Learners License.
Recently the Comox Valley Regional District purchased some land – the former railway grade from Royston to Cumberland. It has been used as an unofficial trail in the past, however I wasn’t aware of it. The trail is approximately 5.5 km long. However, part of this trail is on the Cumberland side of the Inland Island Hwy.
I was driving behind the RCMP Freeway Patrol officer, not realizing we were both driving the same speed (distance of my car and his car were constant) and also didn't realise he was a police officer as it was an unmarked vehicle. As soon as I realised he speeds up, I continue at my speed and then he slows down to about 70KM/H and I slow down to 80KM/H and pass him on the left.
Question: I live in a Strata Complex in Coquitlam. Road access to the homes is from a busy street. Strata Complex roads are narrow and require drivers to drive less than 25 km/h. The problem in the community is some drivers risky behaviour is a source of concern for many.
Question: I know of someone who has just lost their wallet with their driver's license in it. This person has reported their wallet as stolen and the police have informed this person that they can still drive even though this person has their license stolen and they told this person that if they get pulled over that the license is already reported stolen? I am a little confused on this.
I am finding discrepancies when I ask drivers of mini-buses whether they make their passengers wear their seat belts. I used to have my Class 4 license and we were always required to make sure the passengers had them on. Some drivers and companies seem to think this is optional depending on the passenger.
Question: Last week on my daily walk, my friend and I were crossing the old Island Highway at the bottom of Bay Street. It looked like we had a lot of time but oddly a younger aggressive driver actually sped up as we were crossing. It was no where a near miss (or hit depending on perspective) but it made me question that there are no crosswalks for close to a kilometre.
