Firefighters can now obtain
special licence
The government is issuing
speciallicence plate stickers for
the personal vehicles of volun-
teer and full-timefirefighters
across the province, Transpor-
tation Minister Gilles Pouliot
announced recently.
"The special stickers allow the
public and enforcement com-
munity to identify the personal.
vehicles of firefighters," said
Pouliot. "We hope all motorists
will ensure they don't block or
otherwise impede accessibility to
these vehicles, which may be
needed to respond to an .emer-,
gency at any time." '
The front plate stickers replace
windshield stickers that have
been used by some volunteer
firefighters, especially in smaller
communities and rural areas.
plate stickers
The amendment tothe High-
way Traffic Act to permit the
special plate stickers is the result
of recommendations from a
committee that included
representatives of the As-
sociation of Fire Chiefs, enfor-
cement agencies and' the
ministries of Transportation,
Health and Solicitor General and
Correctional Services.
Localfire chiefs will ad-
minister the sticker distribution.
The sticker will be removed
when a vehicle owner is no
longer active as a firefighter.
"It's important to keep in mind
that while there are no special
privileges associated with the
sticker, we ask the public to co-
operate to ensure firefighters can
° quickly respond to an emergen-
cy," said Pouliot.
