Ottawa, Ontario – The Ontario government has announced that as of January 1, the province’s collision reporting threshold has been increased from $2,000 to $5,000.
In a recent report highlighting the regulations and statutes in force for the new year, the government indicates that the motion is specifically intended to “help reduce the administrative burden on drivers, commercial vehicle operators and police services.”
Additionally, the report notes that alongside this change, the province is amending regulations under the Highway Traffic Act to extend the deadline for Motor Vehicle Inspection Station owners to switch to the DriveON program.
