Our new impaired driving penalties appear to be getting the word out: drinking and driving is not acceptable here in B.C.

I am wondering about the rules for making vehicle modifications. There are many custom trucks and 4x4s of all sorts on the highway with big tires and lift kits. I would like to modify a vehicle by building custom control arms.
