Just for reference,
It *IS* illegal under the Alberta Traffic Safety Act
Driving on right side of roadway
12(1) A person driving a vehicle shall not drive the vehicle so that the vehicle or any portion of the vehicle is to the left of the centre line of a highway except
(a) when overtaking and passing another vehicle travelling in the same direction;
(b) when the roadway to the right of the centre line is obstructed by a parked vehicle or other object;
(c) when the roadway to the right of the centre line is closed to traffic;
(d) when turning left from the highway onto another highway or into a private road or driveway;
(e) when a traffic control device otherwise requires or permits;
(f) when the vehicle is being operated on a one-way highway.
(2) If a highway is divided into 2 or more roadways by a boulevard, ditch or other physical barrier, a person driving a vehicle shall not drive the vehicle
(a) into, across or on the boulevard, ditch or physical barrier, or
(b) on that portion of the highway that is to the left of the yellow line except in an emergency situation where the vehicle is disabled and it is not practicable to move the vehicle to the far right side of the highway.
Per http://www.qp.alberta.ca/574.cfm?page=2002_304.cfm&leg_type=Regs&isbncln=0779738624 (http://www.qp.alberta.ca/574.cfm?page=2002_304.cfm&leg_type=Regs&isbncln=0779738624)
I think I've met that guy before and came to the realization he was a large container for a very small mental facility.
Everything you quoted is regarding left of the center or yellow lane, nothing about the right hand side.

Which he was. :)
Anyway, he was trying really hard to sell his jeep on here. I'm sure a quick phone call would let someone know if he still has it or not.
-
wonder if there is any legality issues in showing the license plate.
-
Don't see why there would be.
-
can somebody post the pics :( pretty please with sugar on top.
-
Post up the plate and then link to the CPS traffic guys ;D

I replied to this on 4wheeler.

I drive past this Jeep every Tuesday on the way to poker. The Husky by the corner of Southland and Elbow. Its always covered in crap and it looks like some parts are hanging off it. :(
-
He parks it outside the Husky, I'm tempted to print the photos off and go give him a tongue lashing. >:( Its twits like this that make it so I can't goto IG, parts of Waiparous and now possibly MOAB and Tellico.

Please everyone if you sell you jeep take off your CJA stickers.
If your membership is up and you dont plan on renewing please remove your stickers.
I cant stress this enuff, years of hard work are thrown out the window over one stuppid move like this.

gonna go steal his front driveshaft so the next time he decides to go 'wheeling' he'll get stuck (hopefully) and we'll see how much urban wheeling he can do after a couple tickets and a hefty tow bill.....
on the topic, if closures and things of that nature continue to happen, we will very well likely see more and more of this 'urban' wheeling.

Well, it's not my club and it's not my stickers, so I'm not gonna suggest anything like an informal club gathering and "education session" at The Husky by the corner of Southland and Elbow. I'm also not going to suggest that someone print off the picture where he is clearly facing the wrong way across the yellow line and trade it for the remnants of a scraped off CJA sticker.....
But if I see him out there I might accidentally drive over his "too-built for highway" rig with my willys....

Or use the club rule that the Stampeders use, all decals are the property of the club and not the individual member and can be "revoked" by the club at any time.
BTW, I didn't post the link to badmouth the guy, I posted it in the hopes that he is either a member that needs a bit of responsible use education or maybe a member knows him and can convince him that what he is doing is wrong.

seams so far no one knows him, but i hope he is lurking in the back ground and sees his behavior is not appropriate.
Dude if you r reading this please remove the CJA and AURS stickers from your jeep.
