Except that much of the Newfoundland coastline is vertical... (!)
Still, a neat idea, if the rule is a real one. Is the 10m measured
in horizontal distance? If so, I can picture a number of spots near
St. John's where you could park within 10m of the coast--but 200 feet
above it!
Is the unpaved road from the St. Lawrence (near Sept-Iles Que, IIRC?)
to Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador still "passable"?
