You will Dote that the by-law has been ap roved with the exception of section 2 which establishes a penalty f r contràvention of the provisions of the by-law. Section 2 has not een approved as there is no authority for a municipality to prescrib a penalty for contravention of a bridge weight by-law. Section 6 (8) of The Highway Traffic Act authorizes municipalities to pass such y-laws, however, does not establish any offence or permit a penalty t be provided in such by-law. The power to prescribe penalties un er The Municipal Act would not apply to a by-law enacted pursuant to the provisions of The Highway Traffic Act. · An amendment to The Highway Traffic A being considered to provide that the penalties unde section 64 apply to by-laws enacted under section 6 ment to The Highway Traffic Act will remedy this t is presently subsection 7 of (8).
