Quadracycling in Ottawa



The Slow-Moving Vehicle Sign


27 May 2007: Because the Ottawa Police received some advice from MTO that quadracycles are "vehicles" but not "bicycles" they asked us to put a "Slow-Moving Vehicle" sign on our quadracycle.

Actually we were happy to do this as it greatly adds to the visibility of the quadracycle, particularly for cars coming up from behind.

Story in our diary.
