A short video introducing the five pillars of the Global Plan for Road Safety. These pillars are Road Safety Management, Safer Roads and Mobility, Safer Vehicles, Safer Road Users and Post Crash Response.
Equestrians are considered to be traffic for the purposes of the Motor Vehicle Act when riders are on the highway. Drivers of motor vehicles must exercise care around them and share the road, especially in light of new vulnerable road user legislation.
I recently purchased the "ResQMe" keychain rescue tool and a "LifeHammer" rescue tool. Both items perform the same functions (cut seat belt or break glass), however the LifeHammer claims to be able to break the windshield in an emergency.
I'm no stranger to death by automobile. It was never a pleasure to investigate fatalities and for me there was no satisfaction in the successful prosecution of the impaired driver that caused them. Many more people than the direct victims were hurt and I knew that the only way I could really contribute was to hunt down the impaired driver and stop them.
Could you please touch on where a quad or off road machine may and may not operate. We were on the Gillard FSR and a police car had a side by side pulled over. We did not stop and ask what was going on. I understand that certain parts of the KVR are OK and some not...very confusing.
Transport Canada, the Automobile Protection Agency (APA) and the Rubber Association of Canada (RAC), teamed up to create a series of videos that clearly demonstrate how winter tires drastically improve driver safety when compared to all season tires or a mix of winter and all season tires.
I need some serious help here because I've got a licence suspension! I am an N driver and I've sped twice in an almost two year period. Once was 110 km/h in a 90 zone and another time was 109 km/h in a 90 zone. Both occurred in a 4 month period whilst I was driving my friend (living on his own) to work.
“Well, I thought that you were trying to catch that car ahead of me.” This is a common reply when drivers are stopped to explain why they didn’t pull over for the police vehicle trying to catch an obvious violator. The vehicle ahead of these drivers might be the object of the pursuit, but how is that driver to know?
QUESTION: I was wondering if anyone could help or give me information about how to dispute a ticket for driving without insurance.
We were luckly pulled over a couple days ago by a officer who pointed out that our insurance ran out prior and issued us a ticket for it.
Join the folks at Fifth Gear as they crash a Ford Focus into a barrier at 120 mph or 193 km/h. After you take a look at the result, remember that a two vehicle head on crash at freeway speeds here in BC is somewhat the same. Two vehicles coming together at 100 KM/H each is the energy equivalent of this car striking the barrier at 200 km/h. Regardless of the circumstances, you don't want this to happen to you.
