Careless driving

I've got a buddy who was tagged w/ careless driving(he got his DUI reduced). Does this show up on his record as a felony in Canada? Does he have anything to worry about? Any help would be appreciated. Happened 8 years ago.

Problem is the "careless" may be coupled with an "implied consent" violation that appears on the driving record. Taken together means a drinking/driving violation occurred, and can, in some situations, be used for enhancing subsequent drinking violations from a misdemeanor to a gross misdemeanor. You'll have to check with customs to determine how the Canadien authorities treat the situation you speak of.

This is what you do ....have him bring paperwork along detailing his violation. Therefore if somehow you are given a problem, and they see a blip on the radar and determine they are concerned he has a DUI, you bust out the papers and show them it is not and you will be fine

I have the same situation and I was told when I called St. Francis that if my DUI was dropped, that I was ok. (3 years ago) No matter how you look at it (dropped /reduced) the CRIMINAL offense is careless driving and as far as I know that is ok in Canada. I have been through the border at least 2-3 times per year since then with no trouble. However, I have never been pulled over and searched either. The imlied consent falls under another category I believe some sort of CIVIL offense. YOu were not convicted of DUI and that cannot be seen as the same as a conviction. That would be like saying we don't allow sex offenders in Canada and then not allowing Kirby Puckett (god rest his soul) in because he was seen on TV being accused of touching boobs.

Hope this helps.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
