A commercial vehicle ticket is worlds apart from a regular traffic ticket. Under Canadian law, especially in Ontario, commercial drivers are held to a much higher standard. The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) tracks all commercial operators and their drivers through the Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR) system.
Your Career is on the Line
A conviction for an offence like an overweight load, a logbook error, or speeding in a commercial vehicle adds CVOR points to your company's record. This can trigger MTO audits, increase insurance premiums, and even lead to your company's vehicles being pulled off the road. For the driver, a conviction can make you unemployable.
