> the ban in QUE is like that… all cars that are in country and have been safited and registered are legal… theyve just made it so nothing new can come into the country… all the ones that are there already and driving around etc etc are fine and you can still sell them and they are legal for the next person too just nothing new into country… Thats why you see RHD cars in QUe that are for sale with inflated prices because they are worth more there since no new ones can come in… IE my soarer was baught in Que. I have all its SAQ papers i think they are called which show theat its been registered and legal for sale and to be re registered in que if i ever decide to sell it

Very true. When I bought my 180 at the time of the ban I still saw people down there driving RHD vehicles. Saw a 300ZX, 2 FD’s cruising together, and a subaru. The people who have them certified are good. Nothing new can be brought in though. That is why some of the dealers down there that still have stock that was certified before the ban by SAQ are selling for a disgusting amount of money, and the ones that weren’t certified depending on how hurt the dealer is are selling for dirt cheap.

You know what Datenshi I don’t own a RHD vehicle l however I’m happy to see someone at least try to stand up for the rights of not only your self but others. So hats off to you.

Too often we Canadians sit back and take whatever the government and media sends are way.

I think if others have a problem with your letter they should write one better and stronger then yours and prove they can do it.

Won’t happen. DUI is above the RHD arguments.

Looks like used car dealers hate RHD too.

> The CADA claims that the cars and trucks, which the group claims are imported from Asian countries, are “dirty and unsafe.” The CADA goes further by saying that the vehicles are often used for “street racing and other reckless acts,” and it claims that the vehicles are 40 percent more likely to be involved in an accident. The proposed solution for these right-drive nuisances is for the Canadian government to change the antique designation to 25 years to reflect the changes made by the U.S. and Australia.

“Dirty and unsafe”

The only thing that’s dirty is their asses that they don’t wipe and their dirty mouths are unsafe too. What a morons.

> _Critics suggest that the real reason these vehicles are so unpopular with the 3,300 dealers associated with the CADA is that the imported vehicles are nibbling away at their car sales_. As the reasoning goes, the older RHD vehicles aren't as safe or as environmentally friendly as newer vehicles, but neither are the left-hand drive vehicles on used car lots all over the country to our north.

^The ugly truth of these capitalist scumbags.

I can understand why they would be upset about them losing sales. But in my opinion they’re are only a hand full of new cars that I would purchase and all which are $50,000+. So of course I would go to a used dealership, or buy a RHD drive car which in most cases are worth it, for the condition they’re in.
