Street-legal vehicle : ウィキペディア英語版 | Street-legal vehicle
Street legal or road going refers to a vehicle such as an automobile, motorcycle, or light truck that is equipped and licensed for use on public roads, being therefore roadworthy. This will require specific configurations of lighting, signal lights, and safety equipment. Some specialty vehicles that will not be operated on roads therefore do not need all the features of a street-legal vehicle; examples are a vehicle used only off-road (such as a sandrail) that is trailered to its off-road operating area, and a race car that is used only on closed race tracks and therefore does not need all the features of a street-legal vehicle. As well as motor vehicles, the street-legal distinction applies in some jurisdictions to track bicycles that lack street-legal brakes and lights. Street legality rules can even affect race car helmets, which possess visual fields too narrow for use on an open road without the risk of missing a fast-moving vehicle.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Frequently Asked Questions about Snell and Helmets )〕 ==Canada== In Canada, all ten provinces follow a consistent set of national criteria issued by Transport Canada for specific equipment required as part of a street-legal vehicle. In some provinces, the ''Highway Traffic Act'' is a matter of provincial jurisdiction; provinces with such an Act include Ontario, Manitoba, Newfoundland, and Labrador. Many but not all U.S.-model vehicles do qualify for importation to Canada, but must meet requirements for items such as daytime running lights (standard on Canadian-market vehicles since 1991, but not required in the U.S.), anti-theft immobilisers, and anchorage points for child seats.〔The (Registrar of Imported Vehicles ), a private company under contract by Transport Canada, provides some information on which US-model vehicles are or can be made street-legal in Canada.〕 Cars from other countries (such as the UK) typically do not qualify, as standards are too widely divergent from those in Canada. Laws regarding aftermarket items such as studded tires, snow tires and radar detectors vary widely between provinces.
