L’Ontario impose de nouvelles exigences en matière de formation pour les conducteurs de camions
The Ontario government is strengthening training and eligibility requirements for commercial vehicle drivers across the province, marking a milestone in our government’s plan to protect Ontario by ensuring our roads remain among the safest in North America.
As part of these changes, our government is developing a new standardized entry-level truck driver training curriculum to ensure commercial drivers receive consistent, high-quality training across Ontario and have the skills they need to operate safely on the province’s roads. The curriculum will include more than 103 hours of clear, robust and consistent training designed to ensure anyone applying for a Class A commercial driver’s licence has the skills and knowledge needed to operate safely and responsibly on Ontario’s roads. Additional training subjects being considered for the new curriculum include fatigue management, northern, rural and remote driving, human trafficking awareness and new mandatory air brake training.
As a next step, the province will work with industry leaders, training providers and other subject matter experts in the coming months to develop the curriculum, with implementation expected to begin early next year.
