A Current Licence and Insurance is Mandatory for All Vehicles on Savary Island

The RCMP has reminded the Association of the Savary Island Committee (ASIC) that officers will be on Savary Island during the summer months and that the law will be enforced on the island as it is on the mainland.  They have made it clear that obtaining a current licence and insurance is mandatory for all vehicles, including golf carts and UTVs. Golf carts are legal on Savary Island but are subject to special restrictions and these limitations and conditions will be enforced by the RCMP (e.g. must have an operation permit, daylight hours only, drivers must have a driver’s licence, must have insurance).  If you are concerned about the regulations governing the use of any type of vehicle on Savary Island you can contact the Powell River RCMP.  The alternative is having the rules explained by the officer while he/she writes a ticket.
