Dear Constable; - • • The 9.th,F ,night I parked my car on a highWay- and When, came back .itrthe morning it was gone, It had snowed 1444 th.g night and I noticed several car tracks around where my vehicle had been., When I 'contacted the police to report a stolen car, they informed me that they had re- moved It because it was Inter- fering with snow removal, My question is, where do they get the authority to move my par? ANSWER: They got their authority from the same section of the Highway Traffic Act that likely you would be charged under, Section '89. Section 89, Subsection (11) states 'A constable or an officer ap- pointed for the carrying out of the provisions of this Act, upon discovery of any vehicle parked or standing in contravention of Subsection 9, or of a municipal by-law, may cause it to be moved or taken to and placed or stored in a suitable place and all costs and charges for removing, care and storage thereof, if any, are a lien upon the vehicle, which , may be enforced in the manner provided by Section 48 of the Mechanic's Lien Act'. QUESTION: Dear Constable; Am I required by law to stop at railway crossings when.opera- ting my snowmobile on,the way? '4 ANSWER; Yes, you must stop, and not only when crossing on a highway, but at any time you cross a railway, by law. When 'the dri- ver of a motorized snow vehicle is approaching a railway, he shall stop the motorized snow vehicle and shall not proceed to cross until he can do so safely.

Another interesting note is that any full time 00,11,te Of- ficer in the province of Ontario has jurisdiction anywhere In the province, QUESTION: Dear Constable: Can I be charged for operating ANSWER: , c a snowmobile on the sidewalk? No, they are not allowed to-go ANSWER: wherever they wish, especially I would say yes, but the final private property. Your land is 1' answer would come from the your land and you have t4e right to say who comes on it. It is true you could put up signs sta- ting 'No Trespassing', but what would our cities and towns look like if everyone had to put up signs during the winter for a few- inconsiderate snowmobile operators. Persons who operate snolvmobiles, etc., on your pro- perty are, trespassing and 'Could be charged if-they are instructed not to go on the property and refuse to' leave after you have told them to do so. There are many snowmobile clubs who are just as 'concerned as you. If the s&tnation gets out' of hand; by- laws ,can bade to prohibit the tar of snowmobiles. courts. There is no specific charge such as Driving on Side- walk under the regulations per- taining to snowmobiles, but I feel that the section dealing with the careless operation of a snow- mobile would cover the matter. To quote, 'Every person is guil- ty of the offence of driving care- lessly who drives a motorized snow vehicle without due care and attention or without reason- ableiconsideration for other per- sons'. QUESTION: Dear Constable: When we are operating our snowmobiles in groups on the highway in single file, how much space should we allow between snowmobiles? ANSWER: There is no specific number of feet mentioned in the regu- lations,, they just state that the driver of a motorized snow ve- hicle shall not follow another vehicle or motorized snow ve- hicle more closely than is rea- sonable and prudent, having due regard for the speed 9f such vehicle or -.motorized snow ve- 0 cadent? AsswEri: No if it is used on, .private property, but OA regulations state; 'No person Shall drive .a motorized snow vehicle upon a highway unless he is insured under a motor vehicle lialdlity pOlicy in accordance with the Insurance Act, and the owner of a motorized snow vehicle Shall not permit any person to drive the vehicle upon a highway un- less the triver is so insured. QUESTION: Dear Constable: Can municipalities pass rules • or regulations prohibiting the use of snowmobiles? ANSWER: • Yes, they can. The regula- tions state the following: 'The council of a municipality may pass by-laws prohibiting the dri- ving of motorized snow vehicles along or across any highway or part of a highway under its Juris- diction and that Part XXI of the Municipal' Act applies to by-laws passed under Siibsection 1.' • "GOD SAVE THE QUEEN" Classified Ads pay' dividends. 11.....semeiewook MAPLE LtAr SHORT SHANK SMOKED CT!
