Vancouver considers crackdown on drivers without winter tires | CTV Vancouver News

not sure how it can be enforced... it's not like how you can put up a roadside check on the road to whister and pick the bad ones out?

If they do it, it'd still be pretty meaningless. It'll just end up being the same as the S2S route where all seasons are considered "winter tires", and the situation wouldn't be too different. On the other hand, I question the sensibility of mandatory winter tires when the average temperatures in our coldest months (Dec and Jan) are 4°C.

yeah...there's just no efficient way to really crack down on a mandatory winter tire rule in the LM

Void coverage should be relatively easy. If a report filed for the accident indicated the driver(s) involved did not have adequate tires for the pre-defined condition(s). (ie. shit tires or summers when it was a slush mode out there, then they're on their own.
Similar to the 10 year driving restrictions that some people put on their insurance. If a person driving it doesn't have the 10 years and gets into an accident, they're fucked. If you don't have proper tires for the conditions and you factor into a collision, you should be fucked.

To implement it, they really just have to lay out what the predefined conditions are and what constitutes inadequate tires. (ie. X amount of snow in X hours, X temperature, X kind of tires, X % left in tires and so on.

Seems like a waste of time. Just put it under driving without reasonable consideration for others if they are stucked.

I yell at him every day at work to AT LEAST get all seasons M+S but he says "its too expensive" :fulloffuck:

he did put a down payment of 10K on his FRS so I guess thats where all his money went :lawl:

jjson 02-10-2017 02:39 PM

^If he buys 1 snow tire per month leading up to December, it won't seem like "it's too expensive" lol

Looking forward to getting my garden patch started.

Here's to hoping for no water restrictions this summer!

Video said ppl can get tickets for worn tires. Anyone know the details on that? Ie what's the ticket fall under, what's the threshold for worn?

68style 02-12-2017 01:31 AM

^Anything below 5/32

Traum 02-12-2017 01:43 AM

The MVA technically calls for minimum tread depth of 3.5mm on winter tires, and that is just a touch less than 5/32".

MG1 02-12-2017 08:37 AM

First, no snow tires, then tread depth........ when will this all end? It's a slippery slope, I say.

All kidding aside, I'm all for it. Nevermind the inconvenience caused by these drivers, they could end up causing major accidents and injuries. If the COV do go ahead with this, I hope the other municipalities follow suit.

One thing is for sure, the tire shops would be very happy.

320icar 02-12-2017 09:13 AM

I've said it before and I'll say it again, 35-40% of vehicles that come in for new tires are worn well past the wear bar. A lot of alignment issues that burn through the inner or outer tread to the point of showing chords and wires. I'm 1000000% for road side safety checks

Anyone know what the road conditions in mission are like ?

When I talked to my friend who lives out there earlier, he said the roads were fine. I'd still be cautious of black ice, especially if you're going out there during the evening/early morning.
