permit for road travel?

[Jack Innes]

[QUOTE=Robin Craig;167053]In Ontario, if you have an ATV registration, unless your municipality permits it, an ATV can not be driven on the road. An ATV under the highway traffic act is defined as a vehicle that one sits "astride" of.

I too questioned the "sitting astride" definition of an ATV when I asked the local MOT office to change the registration on my Iltis from the ATV one it was issued on release from the government to a regular car registration. After several calls to head office they were able to do it. No answer was forthcoming on why they thought you could sit astride an Iltis.

I have not looked into it but does anyone know what they classify an "Argo" or such off road machines that you definitely sit inside? Actually an Argo with the track option is very similar to a carrier - except for the floating option of the Argo.
