QUESTION FOR CANADIAN RIDERS ONLY: I have a problem...50 years ago when the licensing in Ontario was a CHAUFFEUR you could drive just about anything even a transport. I got mine at age 16 driving a 5 ton dump truck, and I got my motorcycle license riding a Honda Dream. Then they changed the classifications of the licenses and when mine came up for renewal i just renewed my Chauffeurs licence but not my motorcycle since I was not riding then. I am in Toronto.....when I enquired about getting my motorcycle llicense renewed the MTO (Ministry Transport Ontario) said I had to take a training course with Humber College or Seneca College. Problem: I lost my balance and walk with a cane so I cant ride the 2 wheel dirt bikes that the instructors give you, and they dont let you take the course on a trike. (which I would be riding anyways). Any ideas or suggestions? :cool:
 
Not being from Canada, what do paraplegic driving a trikes take their test? Surely, they don't take it on two wheels.
Just thinking out loud!
