Lower Mainland driver fined for failing to clear snow from multiple car windows

There’s a long-running joke across Canada that the Lower Mainland shuts down with less than a centimetre of snow on the ground.

Well, the region is dealing with much more snow than a centimetre this week and not all residents are handling it properly.

On Friday, Burnaby RCMP tweeted a picture announcing the ticket for not properly clearing snow several car windows.

According to the police, failing to properly clear all snow from all the windows of your car can result in a $109 fine under the Motor Vehicle Act.

The Lower Mainland has been blanketed by more than 40 centimetres of snow over the past few days and there’s been no shortage of hilariously awkward Vancouverites trying to deal with the weather.

There is some relief on the horizon for BC following a week of #BCStorm weather, much warming weather is forecast to swoop into the province beginning Monday.
