Understanding the Importance of Defending Against Charges Upon a Commercial Vehicle Operator Registration (CVOR)

Red Semi-Trailer Truck on Highway in Countryside Corporations or individuals, as operators or owners, whose business involves the use of commercial trucks weighing in excess of 4,500 kilograms must complete the registration process known as a Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR). As an owner or an operator with a CVOR, in addition to charges that may be brought against a driver, these owners or operators may be separately charged for any infringements of the Highway Traffic Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, as well as other laws regulating use of the road network.

Common Issues

Common issues within CVOR matters involve vehicle condition, excessive loads, unsecured cargo, discrepancies in logbooks, inadequate or expired licenses, among various other concerns. These issues are in addition to the legal actions initiated against the commercial vehicle driver. Charges related to CVOR can be initiated by either a police officer or an officer from the Ontario Ministry of Transportation ("MTO"). These charges are processed within the Ontario Court of Justice in accordance with the procedures as provided in the Provincial Offences Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.33, and its accompanying regulations.

Inspection Authority

Within the framework of the Highway Traffic Act, specifically under section 82.1, there are mandates governing the inspection of commercial vehicles. The mandates aim to ensure the safety and roadworthiness of commercial vehicles, protecting both the operators and the public. It is imperative for commercial vehicle operators and the vehicle drivers to comply with the inspection mandates that help to ensure the roadworthiness of commercial vehicles and thereby contribute to road safety.
