Where can I find information on regulations associated with pocket bikes, ATV’s and other off-road vehicles?
Municipalities have the authority to determine whether or not off-road vehicles (ORVs) should be allowed access to roads under their authority. Off-road vehicles (ORVs) are defined as any two or three-wheeled motorized vehicles as well as specific vehicles described by regulations, with four or more wheels, intended for recreational use. ORVs are prohibited from 400 series highways, the Trans-Canada Highway and the Queen Elizabeth Way. ORVs cannot operate in a construction zone, on a closed highway, or within a provincial park unless allowed by the park. Municipalities may pass by-laws to decide if, where, and when off-road vehicles can be used on local roads. For further information please refer to the link listed to the right.
