Thank you, Madam Chair. The Standing Committee on Resource Management and Development has reviewed Bill 5, An Act to Amend the Motor Vehicles Act. This bill will require that headlights or daytime running lights of a motor vehicle driven on a highway be on at all times.
In addition to this, Members raised concerns about the cost associated with upgrading an older vehicle so that lights would automatically come on and go off. Although this automatic feature is not required by the bill, committee Members were concerned that owners of older vehicles would feel it was necessary to upgrade their vehicles. That is the report from the committee. Thank you, Madam Chair.
