The road rules in Canada is sort of like trying to understand the lyrics to Led Zeppelins’ ‘Stairway to Heaven’. Everyone has their own interpretation. This makes for some interesting driving, especially as my interpretation is very different to everyone else.
Here is what I have learnt about driving in Canada so far:
- Canadians drive on the right of the road.
- In the province of Quebec, roadsigns are written in French.
- They have aircraft to detect speeding cars.
- It is legal to turn right on a red light.
- Many busy intersections are four (or three) way stops. They have no traffic lights, but have four stop signs instead. You must stop and let everyone that stopped before you go first. If two cars arrive at the intersection at the same time, the car to the right has precedence (As an Australian this particular rule does not apply to me and I will always have right of way and do not have to stop. And I don’t.).
