I would like to wade in and set the record straight.

As Greg has pointed out a "parade" is just that, the road is closed etc.

Otherwise NO.

Put it on a trailer.

It is not an agricultural vehicle.

It is not a "road building or maintenance vehicle".

You have no place or right being on the road.

Registration of a vehicle in the province of Ontario is a priviledge not a god given right.

I don't want to sound harsh but them is the facts.

I personally have looked at the Highway Traffic Act 14 ways to Sunday as I have the opportunity to drive
some much more suited vehicles for the road, ones with full lighting and turn signals and horn etc AND rubber pads in the track
which means the track itself doesn't bear on the road, but alas no.

I have driven a carrier on the road in Ottawa but for a parade so them is the breaks.

Let me ask you another question, if you did decide to flout the law and attempt to drive it down the street and there was an accident (let us assume not your fault) what would you say then when asked for ownership and insurance by the nice Mr Plod?
