1-8 Confirmation that a vehicle is registered with IRP and therefore allowed to travel in BC, without additional permits or licensing, is obtained from the “Cab Card”

A cab card is issued by the base jurisdiction and will indicate whether the vehicle is authorized to travel in BC and at what weights it is allowed to travel. An example of a BC issued cab card is provided at the end of this section in Figure 1. For further information, contact ICBC Prorate

Department (see 1-8 Contacts).

CAVR agreement

Cab Card sample

“Power unit” under CAVR, this means a self-propelled motor vehicle having permanently attached thereto a truck, bus or delivery body and includes a truck tractor used for hauling purposes on a highway.

Confirmation that a vehicle is registered with IRP and therefore allowed to travel in BC is obtained from the “Cab Card”.

A cab card is issued by the base jurisdiction and will indicate at what weight the vehicle is authorized to travel in each jurisdiction. Additional permits may be required. For more information, contact Commercial Transport.

An example of a BC issued cab card is provided at the end of this section in

Figure 1. For further information about cab cards, contact your base jurisdiction’s IRP office.

Regulations, or

iii) the maximum weight allowed by section 7.16 and 7.17 CTR for axles that fall within an 8 m span along the combination’s length, or

iv) a combination of i) and ii) - for example, if one axle unit in a group is underloaded and the other is overloaded, the total for that 8 m group may be taken to be the sum of the actual weight for the underloaded axle unit plus the maximum legal weight for the overloaded axle unit.

As described above, when actual weights are known from weighing of a vehicle/load, this may cause the GVW allowable to be less than the sum of the maximum legal axle group weights, as shown in the example below.

Overall height limited to a maximum 4.3 m when loaded, except 4.6 m on the

Highway 16 corridor (which includes

Highway 37 to Kitimat) and 4.88 m in the Peace River area iii) Kingpin to Centre of Last Axle

To accommodate overlength loads, lowbed semi-trailers and lowbed expando semi-trailers may be expanded up to a distance of 18.3 m from the kingpin to the last axle of the semitrailer.

Requests for approval to obtain single trip permits to exceed 18.3 m from kingpin to centre of last axle should be made using an Extraordinary Load

Approval Request Form , and offtracking analysis for your trailer and proposed route should accompany the request.

Jeeps and boosters are allowed to be used in combination with these freestanding trailers, subject to II) below.
