Sooner or later, the government and ICBC will ban RHD cars and NOT insure them.

Did you ever stop to think what would the consquences be if you got into an accident with your RHD car? The news would be ALL over that.

Amazingly there hasn't been a high profile accident with a RHD car - yet. But it WILL happen and when it does the shit will hit the fan and some tree hugger will make sure you RHD people will suffer.

RHD cars have been here for a long time with no problems.

There is nothing wrong with RHD vehicles.

All the street-ricers on the evening news that keep crashing and rolling their parents Camry's have all looked like LHD vehicles to me.

Maybe they should ban LHD!

604CEFIRO 07-20-2006 02:12 PM

And can you support this claim with some actual facts and studies?

Or is this just based on your bias opinion about everyone's car except for yours? ;)


Pencils can be dangerous, walking on the side walk can be dangerous, taking a shit and masterbating at the same time can be dangerous.

RHD cars can be dangerous, just like LHD cars.

Guns don't kill people, people kill people.

when I was checking out my stolen bike at icbc last time.
There was this crashed skyline that is totally fixable sitting in a
corner, the estimator told me icbc has to claim it is totalled, coz
they can't find parts for these RHD cars. Insurnace will soon be
skyrocketing.

Also, the guy at max overdrive has shown me a letter saying,
federal government is going to stop the importing early next year
and change 15yrs to 25yrs.

I drive a RHD car.

chun 07-20-2006 04:14 PM

Another RHD here... left turns are tougher but can be done safely easily.

No mom, I'm not watching bukake movies again 07-20-2006 09:47 PM

Rhd here... Skyline GTR Nismo Edition. Love driving rhd, it just feels much more natural and comfortable. Maybe it's because I'm right handed. Passing on the highway is somewhat a p.i.ta. but a quick downshift to 3rd and problem solved.

so does that mean anyone who owns a good RHD car right now will have a nice little next egg if they sell after the change date?

i wonder if this is just icbc's way of getting RHD cars off the road, because placese like the skyline shop have a warehouse full of parts to fix skylines. when i visited that place last year, they had an complete shell that could be used for repairing others.

I don't think this 15 yr --> 25 yr is going to happen any time soon.

The government takes so long to pass any bills, laws, changes, etc. Theres still plenty of time.


I don't see what the big deal is about driving RHD. it's just like driving a regular car. You should be careful making left turns wether your driving on the left or the right side.

I'm not sure if ICBC buys from places like that. As far as I know, it's only junk yards and dealers. If you know where to get parts, you can always buy the car back and rebuild it if ICBC allows you to. Most of the time, they'll only let you buy it back for parts.

as I was told, they have been planning this for the past year. they want to change the 25yrs rule so it is the same as US.

and good luck driving your RHD to the states. Few weeks ago,
I have seen two skylines that were lining up in front of us, they
got searched by five to six officers, we LMAO. Oh, the guy with
modded orange Mazdaspeed3 was there too. There was
another RHD 300ZX got pulled over near Everett.

well, it is NOT a big deal for you, but the government claims it's
not safe to have RHD headlights on the road that are blinding
on coming traffic. That's why right now, all the incoming RHD
requires to modified the headlights to LHD and Dot-approved.
The windows have to have some kind of North American safety
lable.
