Did you get the Missus a shiny new pick-up truck and you think she should know something about using the thing or did you get yourself a fine trailer to haul that boat – and you feel it would be useful to know more about just what you’ve gotten yourself into.
The police have an offer for you.
Dos she look as if she needs to know more about the operation of her truck? sh can find out.
The Halton Regional Police Commercial Motor Vehicle Unit is hosting a light commercial Motor Vehicle symposium as part of Police Week on May 11, 2016. This session will focus on vehicles having a registered weight of less than 11000 kg and will be particularly useful to owners of pickup trucks and trailers.
The information session will be held at Halton Police Headquarters located at 1151 Bronte Road, Oakville, Ontario. Registration will open at 6:30 PM with the information session starting at 7:00 PM running to 9:00 PM. Registration is limited to Halton residents only.
The police want you to know as much as they can tell you about hauling a trailer with your truck.
The main topics being discussed will be:
• Vehicle weights and dimensions
• Cargo Securement
• CVOR and Registration
• Annual safety
• Mechanical fitness
Spots are limited, anyone wishing to attend is requested to RSVP to haltoncmv@gmail.com with your contact information. A confirmation email will be sent to confirm your attendance.
This is a new initiative, the response from the Community is expected to be significant. Recognizing this demand, Halton Police will endeavour to hold additional seminars in the future to accommodate area residents.
I would love to attend but can’t on that date. Is there any chance that information can be shared such as handouts etc…
