Free Online Saskatchewan VIN Search Print E-mail
Safety and Insurance
Friday, 04 April 2008
SGI has now released a new free function on their website where users can perform a Saskatchewan wide search on the history of a particular VIN.

The online service is free and provides the status of the vehicle, the date it was last registered and its damage claims history in Saskatchewan since January 1998. The results only include claims paid under SGI's Auto Fund licence plate and includes whether it has been given a status such as rebuilt, stolen, non-repairable or a total loss.

Rider Passes Through Regina on His Epic Journey Print E-mail
General Motorcycle
Friday, 04 April 2008
Rodrigo Nunes has been on a long journey. He's actually been on the road now for over five months and logged over 30000 kilometers!

He's riding to raise awareness on the poverty and living conditions currently in Brazil. His costs are being sponsored by Businesses across the Western world.

He arrived in Regina on April 2, 2008, stayed overnight here in the Queen City and left the next morning amidst a crowd of well wishers and supporters.

His website is here but it is in Portuguese so use BabelFish to translate. However, there are many videos and images of his amazing journey on his website that need no translation as they capture his experience as words simply can't.

He left from Roque, São Paulo - Brazil (South America) on October 22nd, 2007 and is hoping to return home by May.

SMA destroys IE7 Print E-mail
Newsflash
Thursday, 27 March 2008
We have been receiving reports of Internet Explorer crashing upon visiting SMA.  This problem seems to be specific to those users who use the new IE7.  We're looking into the problem and hoping to find a fix soon.  In the meantime, feel free take this opportunity to make the switch to Firefox or Opera - both free, and both superior to IE ;)

UPDATE: A few users have now responded that they are experiencing this problem with a few other sites besides SMA.  From what we can gather, it seems Internet Explorer 7 has a problem with one of it's add-ons that are causing the error.  If anyone finds out which one it is, please let us know here.

No more dodging traffic fines in Saskatchewan Print E-mail
Safety and Insurance
Thursday, 14 February 2008

REGINA, Sask. -- The province of Saskatchewan has reached a deal with Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to withhold income tax refunds and GST rebates from drivers who have unpaid traffic fines in the province.

The partnership takes effect this tax season and applies to all fines laid under provincial statutes that are payable to the province. CRA will garnish the returns for any outstanding fines under the deal, the province has announced.

Saskatchewan has also established a new Fine Collection branch to get tough on drivers who don't pay their traffic fines.

Cold On A Motorcycle Print E-mail
General Motorcycle
Friday, 01 February 2008
There is cold, and there is cold on a motorcycle. Cold on a motorcycle is like being beaten with cold hammers while being kicked with cold boots, a bone bruising cold. The wind's big hands squeeze the heat out of my body and whisk it away; caught in a cold October rain, the drops don't even feel like water. They feel like shards of bone fallen from the skies of Hell to pock my face. I expect to arrive with my cheeks and forehead streaked with blood, but that's just an illusion, just the misery of nerves not designed for highway speeds.

Despite this, it's hard to give up my motorcycle in the fall and I rush to get it on the road again in the spring; lapses of sanity like this are common among motorcyclists. When you let a motorcycle into your life you're changed forever. The letters "M" are stamped on your driver's license right next to your sex and weight as if "motorcycle" was just another of your physical characteristics, or maybe a mental condition.
