The 1940s were up to the standard of the time....not that there were a lot of standards yet. As to model Ts, here in this province a vehicle must be OEM. Model Ts are fine down the transcanada highway, although there was an accident a few years ago after the thresherman's reunion when a model T was rear ended by a semi. The only thing beyond OEM that is a legislated requirement in manitoba is a license plate light.

When the guys were fighting the ban in Quebec, one of the things that came up was that under DOD rules in the US, vehicles must meet the Federal standards when they are produced. They may not get the testing, and may not have the niceties like airbags, but apparently that helped kill the new Quebec regulations.
