    Yup. An example would be tractor trailer loads, ie: in Saskatchewan a tractor can legally pull 3 trailers … in BC that’s impossible because of the Rockies. There’s also the issue of tire chains: in BC it’s manditory for some highways (incl tractors) and on others it’s not. Chains in the prairies just don’t make sense, and they chew up the asphalt something fierce.

    It’ll take a while to sort out what’s OK and what’s not.

      Even for that example, there’s the issue of maximum height as well. Different provinces have different standards for clearance, which is why every once in a while you hear about a truck that strikes a bridge or other underpass.
