b. Kept in a safe place at home
c. The permit must be carried in the vehicle or in the immediate possession of the driver when the vehicle is being operated on the highway
d. The vehicle permit must be kept with the Certificate of Registration at home in a safe place at all times

Answer 1

In Nova Scotia, the motor vehicle permit must be in the vehicle or with the driver when operating the vehicle on public roads, not kept at home.

Step-by-step explanation:

The motor vehicle permit must be carried in the vehicle or in the immediate possession of the driver when the vehicle is being operated on the highway. It is a legal requirement to carry either the original or a copy of the permit anytime the vehicle is being used on public roads in Nova Scotia. Keeping the permit at home is not sufficient, as it needs to be produced upon request by law enforcement or other relevant authorities when the vehicle is in use.
