Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Hello Ravage, and welcome to the forum.

A question for you - was your vehicle completely stopped at the time when there were no other vehicles between your car and the intersection? In other words, did you just follow the car in front of you without stopping first?

Hello kkostadinof, and welcome to the forum.

The Ottawa city bylaw 2005-530 section 86 states:

"Despite any provisions of this by-law, every person shall promptly obey all signals given by a traffic control signal, traffic control device or an authorized or official sign and all directions given by a police officer and nothing in this by-law ...

- Honey, did I park the car too far from the curb?
- Which one, the left or the right one?

An extremely polite policemen stops a good-looking woman

Cop: Did anyone tell you that you have wonderful eyes?
Woman: Yes, I've been told that before...
Cop: Then tell me, why don't you use those wonderful eyes to look at the traffic signs?

Cop: Why were you driving so fast?
Driver: I was trying to get home BEFORE the alcohol effects my driving...

Getting a ticket on a merge ramp to a highway for exceeding the 30kph to 70kph limit on those ramps. Where exactly do those limits end?


Unless the signs are posted with a white background and black letters they are NOT enforceable. You are probably referring to yellow speed limit signs which are "cautionary" signs with recommend driving ...

I have no further arguement but this post is here so that I get the last word.

Oh come on. We cannot argue with the mighty Bear... He's a cop, AND he's a good guy.

Well, Mr. BookM can make a fortune by providing an aftermarket equipment to make noise similar to a loud tailpipe when the electric cars ARE in fact legal to drive here. But why the hold up with these? How come americans, who do not give a squat about the environment can drive the few available models, and we can't? There is nothing in the ...

Quieter is safer ;)

Well, according to the logic of "Loud cars saving lives", we should not have a single accident in which a car hits a pedestrian - the pedestrian MUST hear the car coming. Any stats about that hwybear? How many pedestrians are struck by quiet hybrids per year? Also, how many deaf people do we have, or those who crank up their ...

People making a left/right turn from 2-nd left/right lane, especially right in front of you.

Bah, you only repair them a little less often. Let the customer decide what they want, and the mechanic guy better start learning electric engines. Make these cars nice and people will want to buy aftermarket stuff - batteries for once. Besides, gas powered engines will not go away so quick anyway, there will be a 15-25 year gradual transmission ...

Welcome to the forum, BelSlySTi!

Nice to have you aboard

According to current regulations, no electric car can be driven in Ontario (and anywhere else in Canada except BC). Do you find it somewhat ridiculous that, despite all the fanfare about the environmentally friendliness talk, and high gas prices moans, we cannot use the most environmentally-friendly cars? Even though we actually make them here in ...
