I went to Canadian tire to get my VI done and the guy looked at it and told me to go to VPD since my fog lights are DRLs from the factory.

Went to VPD and I showed them the owners manual (well my friends) saying that fog lights are DRL (not even the same model year MR2 :lawl:) and she said it's done deal :fullofwin:

Honestly so fucking pissed right now. I went to do my VI right away as my day insurance would expire and now I'll have to get it towed just because they gave me the fucking impression that my VI has been taken care of.

what bullshit a full vi just because the cop thinks there fog lights, and now it's a chance for the inspection facility to find more stuff wrong so he can make some $$$ for the shop. There should be some kind of arbitration other wise a cop can be a asshole and find say a bald tire something small and issue a vi for nothing.

mb_ 01-06-2014 08:43 PM

They're actually fog lights but they're my DRL and he said it's not ALLOWED which is why he wrote the VI as he did. The problem is, Canadian MR2's use fog lights as DRL from the FACTORY. I'm pretty sure not only MR2s use fog lights as DRL.

maybe try getting a letter from a Toyota Canada or dealership saying the drl's are like that from factory and try showing it to the pd again

Mr.Stubbz 01-06-2014 08:56 PM

what i dont get is why a fog light/drl problem would need to have a full blown vehicle inspection... :fulloffuck:

Wait. Something isn't right here... He SIGNED off on it, therefore it's closed. You can't be charged twice for the same offence, idk if that applies here but i'd suggest posting your situation on the RS Police forum and see what they say...

I was that buddy helping him take pictures wearing the olive jacket! Colder than a witch's tit, I really should have worn something warmer.

You can still get a day permit on a box 2. Just be glad you weren't issued a box 1 where they seize your plates and tow it on the spot. You think New Years is bad? Happened on my birthday...

ye its pretty chilly around there. i work around that area on manitoba so if i ever see you guys again ill make sure to stop for a hello :)

I dont think you can cancel VI's, there is no dispute process. Once you are issued one, its end of story. So ya if the cop was in a bad mood, game over.

Stupid ass reason for a VI though seriously. The flip side here is you have an email address, I would follow up. Ask for the issuing officers contact information. If his only issue is the fog lights then prove to him, they are your DRL.

Yep. Black ice just coming down the small bend in the road westbound on highway 1 before Gaglardi Way.

I've had like a hundred fifty painkillers in the last 48 hours, but at least I got out of it without a scratch. I'm sure it was divine intervention. Probably the ghost of Paul Walker watching over me.

E-mailed the officer who "signed off" on my VI (wasn't the same one that gave me the VI originally). Playing the waiting game now because I got an automated response saying she won't be in until Thursday lol.

Just hope the repair shop can put it back like original. Frame-less door might leak air.
