It seems that you haven't checked out what "highway" means under the MVA. It does not refer to something very specific, it is about as wide an encompassing definition as one can get. Pay particular attention to b): (a) every highway within the meaning of the Transportation Act, (b) every road, street, lane or right of way designed or intended for or used by the general public for the passage of vehicles, and (c) every private place or passageway to which the public, for the purpose of the parking or servicing of vehicles, has access or is invited, but does not include an industrial road. So if it is a road, and it is not a private industrial road, then it is a highway upon which cyclists and drivers have the same rights and obligations. > I can go places on a bike that cars are not allowed. Both drivers and cyclists have the same obligation, the obligation to observe the bylaw that restricts a roadway to a certain type of vehicle. > You do not need a licence to operate a bike - a car you do. > Car use gasoline and are much more expensive to operate than a bike > Plain & simple. What do these have to do with having the same rights and obligations on how those vehicles are to be operated on public highways? -- K. Te tetted e tettetett tettet? Te tettetett tettek tettese, te!
