O Canada! > Canadian > Canadian Chat > [Rant] Why the *** are you commuting in a backhoe?

All perfectly legal with that triangle sign attached. I used to tear up the back roads in the county on tractors and hill groomers from our ski resort in the winter back in the day. Mind you only snowmobiles could keep up with me in snowstorms so holding up traffic wasn't a problem.

Section 132 doesn't make any specific exemptions for that triangle, just road service vehicles. I'm sure you can clarify.

You unilaterally introduced section 132 where as section 76 and Regulation 616 are the appropriate authority.

So there is an contradiction between the Regs. and Statutes?

I've always wondered if Section 7 applies. I never see number plates on these vehicles.

You said it was perfectly legal for a slow moving vehicle displaying the slow moving triangle to hold up traffic on a public highway, whereas Section 132 would indicate otherwise regardless of a slow moving sign being affixed to a vehicle in accordance with Section 76 - unless it's a road service vehicle, of course.

Now as to the strict interpretation of my post, no you cannot affix a triangle thing to anything that does meet the definition of a “motor vehicle” and breach section 132 of the HTA with impunity.
