Ontario Highway Traffic Act

I measured it out on my map software, and from estimating where the island ends, 150 m brings you to around the entrance of the parking lot for Ellesmere Park (assuming s. 143 refers to straight line of sight). If I remember correctly, trees block some of that visibility, and from the map it looks as if the edge of the building might come into play ...

I can't offer legal advice, but I do know that Costco well. If you need to get back to Warden, you have to take the long way around the parking lot and exit over the speed bumps. If you find yourself at the exit where you can't turn left, you can turn to the right, then take a left at the first T-junction, and you end up at Ellesmere. You can turn ...

Hold on, s. 148 (7) is only for vehicles unable to turn out. I don't think it would apply in this case unless the vehicle left you less than one half of the roadway free. And if it did apply, then that means if you feel the vehicle overtaking you cannot do it in safety, you must "immediately stop" - not even an option to slow down.

I think you're ...

Hey at least Obama is cracking down, telling Chrysler it's not a viable company. Burrrn

Is it true that the "right to bear arms" in the States was to allow for a violent overthrowing of government should they get out of hand? I know I've heard that somewhere.

Hey, wanna be my reference? I'll be a shoe-in with endorsement from a celebrity.

I can't find anything that says a "NEW" warning has to be erected for every new sign. Could be just a courtesy, or could be part of some act that I haven't searched yet.

However, you mention that it was tilted to the right. The left edge of the stop sign cannot be more than 4 m away from the edge of the roadway (a shoulder is not part of the ...

There is no speed limit exemption for passing. If the pass cannot be made in safety, you should slow down and go back behind the other car.

Maybe that's why I didn't last. The underground molepeople never accepted me as one of their own.

NERDS are allergic to the sun. You'll never find one on a boat, much less drinking on one.

Hey you weren't even on the ballot!

I see Bear has been added to the moderator's list today. Spambots beware.

If everyone could just be responsible we wouldn't need all these nanny laws.

Maybe if first responders were allowed to dunk the drunks back in the water as bait for some monster pike.

That should fall under s. 170 and REG. 604. Section 3 of REG. 604 says you can't encroach on a contiguous parking space for angle parking off the roadway, but it seems that marked parallel parking spots are meaningless.

The Orillia parking bylaws aren't easily available, but I've checked the Toronto bylaws and can't find anything that says you must park within a marked parking space. Does this mean that those who park crooked across two spaces are breaking no laws? It happens often in the winter, and I can understand those who can't see the lines and park ...

I would have no problem writing tickets for "petty" things like littering or jaywalking

I don't think jaywalking is a "petty" offence. Numerous pedestrians get killed every year when they step off the curb into traffic, and they assume that drivers are just going to stop for them. A pedestrian is no match for a 3000+ pound vehicle. Toronto ...

Congrats, Bear!
