Very cool! I was 19/20 on the signs and 20/20 on the traffic situations.
I am going to have my 21 year old son test his skills.

Hi All,
Just joined and have been trolling, did the test and got 16/20 then 19/20 in the awareness test. Not bad for a Kiwi. I have ridden about 10000 miles in 2007 through your great country and Canada. Came across an interesting old Lodge in Fort Steele, anyone know this one. Saw a few other Lodges but was travelling to fast to try to make contact, maybe next trip.

Don't go where the path leads. Instead, create your own path and leave a trail. RV was here.

Who has actually seen a tractor crossing sign?  That is a normal part of traffic where I live.
