Surprise, surprise

NORTH Vancouver RCMP Const. Shaun Ali, of the traffic section, signals to the driver of one of 30 cormmer-
cial vehicles inspected on Monday. Only two of the vans and big trucks were found to have no problems dur-
ing the surprise inspection. Although none of the vehicles were taken off the road, eight were found to have
brake problems and four were overloaded. Three drivers got tickets and 12 got warning tickets. A similar
inspection was cancelled by West Vancouver Police because of heavy rain on Tuesday.
