Re: FAIL TO MOVE INTO ANOTHER LANE FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLE

If recall correctly...December of 2002 is when the law came into place. At that time there was wide spread media on the move over law. The law was also published in many licence/renewal sticker packages, that most people just pull out the main portion and chuck the new info.

Part of the law is that "if" you can not move over, you "must" slow down ...

Re: Incomplete/improper disclosure

Temperature is not the "outdoor" temperature either for using the device.
I have yet to experience cold or heat of -30 +60 inside the cruiser.
And sure am not sticking my self outside in either of those temps either.

Re: Mayfield Rd, Caledon Disobey sign

Well been searching the MTO site for " Road Occupancy Permit " and havent found a thing...can you provide the link? Are you meaning a wide load vehicle permit?

Further whatever this "Book 7" is?

And if neither of what you are mentioning is not in here ( http://www.search.e-laws.gov.on.ca/en/search/#LegalAdvice ) it is not a law, but might be a ...

Re: Wrong gender / wrong set fine - 22km over

Also, before the speeding ticket, I did not know what Option 3 meant. When I told the officer it was my first speeding ticket he said, 'I know, just choose option 3 and you'll be fine (reinforced by a hand gesture which typically meant and I read as "Oh, don't worry"). Was he correct in leading me to choose this option although he did not explain ...

Re: Plate Covers

Most certainly would stop that cover - confuse identity of plate along with the Blue/grey/yellow/pink covers all for confuse identity of plate. Only ones that I do not stop is the clear covers, protects the plate from stones, protects validation sticker from theft and proper colour of plate can still be seen

Now with the after market back-up ...

But ABS doesn't work on ice. .
Yes ABS does work on ice, snow etc....can hear it activate with a "griding" type noise and feel the brake pedal pulsate also.

I'm with Staton on this.
Don't think you would be bothered for going straight across the closed road.
But go down the closed road and you most certainly will get attention. (ticket which has demerit points)
Plus pretty sure every insurance company voids the policy when driving on a closed highway, do "Drive without Insurance" could apply at $5000 ...

That is true...the vehicle went into ditch, police arrived, assisted by providing traffic control....and until the tow/car are gone down the road...its one and the same reason for being there.
