ANSWER: The Highway Traffic Act defines a Commercial Mot- or Vehicle as any motor vehicle having permanently attached thereto a truck or delivery body and includes ambulances, hearses casket wagons, fire apparatus, police patrols, motor buses and tractors used for hauling purp- oses on the highways. QUESTION; Do I require a SMV sign on my tractor if I have a flashing'red light? ANSWR: Yes, you do. The Highway Traffic Act states every farm tractor and self-propelled implement of husbandry when operated on a highway or any vehicle towed by either of them shall have a slow moving veh- icle sign attached to the rear thereof in accordance with the regulations except when directly crossing a highway. QUESTION: I have just taken up residence in Ontario. Am I required to present a mechan- ical fitness certificate when I register the car in this province? ANSWER: Yes, you must. The owner of a motor vehicle cur- rently registered in any jurisdic- tion other than Ontario who now seeks to register that motor vehicle in Ontario must produce a certificate of mechanical fit- ness or surrender the plates. QUESTION: Must I stop for Stop signs when the road is under construction? ANSWER: A Stop sign is a Stop sign and means the same at 4 o'clock in the morning as it does at 4 o'clock in the after- noon whether the road is under construction or not. The signs are placed there byregulation made under an ordr in council which is what makes the signs legal. I have heard people say that they have received a ticket for disobeying stop signs and the only car on the road was a pol- ice car and they didn't see him until he stopped them. The amount of traffic or the time of day has nothing to do with whe- ther you stop or not. So when you are approaching a Stop sign, comply with the rules of the road, ooa budEIBtS Wor beaUtIfUIIY LIBBY'S-19 OZ.
