SLOW MOVING
VEHICLES This is Constable
Keith ROBB of the A slow-moving
vehicle sign is a reflective orange triangle bordered with red. It is
used to warn drivers that a vehicle – as the name suggests – is
moving slowly. A slow-moving vehicle can not exceed 40 km/h, so it’s
important to slow down when approaching these vehicles. While traveling
behind a vehicle that carries a slow-moving vehicle sign, be extra cautious
by reducing your speed and staying well back. Only pass a slow-moving
vehicle when it is safe to do so. If it is a horse drawn carriage, be aware
the horse may be startled when a motor vehicle approaches and passes. Farm vehicles,
such as combines and tractors, are longer and wider and turn at places that may
not be well marked such as field entrances. Be patient. These vehicles
are difficult to pass, are often not on the road for very long. Trouble cannot
always be avoided but we don’t have to go looking for it. Slow
down, wear your seatbelt and concentrate on your driving. Having safe
roadways has to start with you. - 30 - Contact:
