A recent commercial vehicle safety blitz in southwestern Ontario put almost half of the 96 vehicles inspected out of service (OOS).
The four-day enforcement drive – from June 10 to 13 – resulted in 46 vehicles being put OOS, according to a Grey Bruce Ontario Provincial Police news release. Also, 80 charges were laid under the Highway Traffic Act, and 55 warnings were issued for minor infractions.
The Grey Bruce OPP partnered with the Ministry of Transportation, Ministry of Finance, Hanover Police Service, West Grey Police Service, Owen Sound Police Service, and Saugeen Shores Police Service, at the blitz focused on identifying unsafe vehicles, unfit drivers, and non-compliance with commercial vehicle regulations.
