Commercial Vehicles Training

The Ministry of Transportation expects carriers/companies to provide CVOR training to their drivers under the Highway Traffic Act in relation to;

• Operating a commercial motor vehicle
• Hours of operation and service
• Log Books, sleeper berth slits, when and how the logs are to be submitted to the carrier
• Daily Vehicle inspections reports listing defects as major or minor

The company is also required to monitor each driver’s log to detect errors, or falsifications. This must be documented by the carrier and be available for inspection should the carrier be subject to a Facility Audit.

Drivers must also know the requirements in regards to submitting these reports to the carrier, and the carrier is expected to monitor these inspections.

OTT Legal offers a full range of CVOR training courses designed to reduce the number of traffic tickets and charges received by driver’s.

The CVOR training courses are conducted by fully trained former officers of the Ministry of Transportation Inspections Unit.

Driver training ensures that drivers and staff are up to date on the requirements placed on them by the Ministry of Transport, ensuring that your company’s violation rate and safety record is kept at its lowest.
