I have been thinking lots lately about street legal side by sides. Any help or info with this issue would be greatly appreciated. Is it by community or is it all provincial. Just think about it guys. Going and getting the mail and groceries in our side by sides. I have seen it done and it was even legal, even though it was in montana. I think this a great time to get the ball rolling as the sled shows in saskatoon and edmonton are coming up in a month. To make our toys leagal they need brake lights and signal lights, easy kits to buy from ebay. Thanks

you will want to check provincal first then find out for each community to see if there are bylaws because I think they override provincial but check with the local cops if you want to be sure

I saw a community maintanance Gator in my neighborhood ripping around and I was thinking about checking into it as well and the police patrol the community too.

I don't know....... Not much different than an older VW dune buggy, and a SXS is very similar. Just might not meet the emission codes???
they pass the california emission bs trashman. i think the big deal is importation of vehicles into canada is they must have a crash test rating. be fun to slam 900 rzr low with street tires though. maybe hit the paved oval for a few laps too!

it is bs that a very "select few" can use them for work purposes. Same ol' deal though, can't fight city hall or the gov for that matter.

Ya it really does pizz me off though. Make the rules for everyone to follow not just some azz hat to pick up garbage bags in the parks
And they drive down the sidewalk to but I got chit for riding my bicycle down the side walk.
Or can't ride a sled / quad down the ditch of the hi way. There's way to many rules in society now. It's a joke really

i dont kno teeroy looks like it might come
golf carts don't have a locked rear differential, but it would certainly open the door if they were allowed on the streets. many US states won't allow UTV's or quads on the roads because they don't have a slip rear diff, the new electric commander has one so it can be allowed on the streets in the states that allow them.
