ROAD RULES

Reading and writing were the focus of my professional life in law publishing. From August 2003 to the spring of 2019, I was the regular contributing writer to Road Rules, a weekly article on motor vehicle law and traffic safety published online at www.roadrules.ca.

When Road Rules began, it was published in many community newspapers throughout the lower mainland of British Columbia, Canada. Road Rules’ origins — translated into Hindi in the Indo-Canadian Voice, and into Farsi in Paivand, a Persian community newspaper in Western Canada — reflect its original purpose, which was to reach and inform new Canadians living in British Columbia’s lower mainland. Close to fifteen years of continuous weekly newspaper publication and, more recently, online has had a two-fold effect. The readership became worldwide and the range of topics expanded to include environmental issues, technological developments, and all road users, not just motor vehicle operators.
