Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
Received Offence Notice of Major Defect in comm. Veh. under HTA 107 (11). Will it cost any points? As per HTA Reg. O. Reg. 339/94 DEMERIT POINT SYSTEM I could not find this Sec. 107 (11) cost any points.
Does it means, no points?
Checked under ONTARIO REGULATION 199/07 under SCHEDULE 1 DAILY INSPECTION OF TRUCKS, TRACTORS AND TRAILERS, too but this specify the minor and major defects only.
Please help.

You can call the MTO and ask them about demerits as they will be best able to tell you.
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
No points on the driver's licence...3 CVOR points to the company
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
Thanks ShrekTec and screeech.
You are right.
But here in this case, on the offence notice, charged under 107 (3)
and it cost 2 points under Conviction Code Table
Thanks
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
Original post says (11), not (3), so yes 2 cvor points...
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
Sorry my mistake. there were two tickets, one to driver, one to company (CVOR)
Driver charged with 107 (11) and Company charged with 107 (3)
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
That makes perfect sense...May I ask what the major defect was?
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
oh! officer did not provide any inspection report. he just ask the driver to put the truck in drive (first) gear. Driver did that. The truck did not move and then officer asked the driver to press the accelerator, the truck moved when the accelerator was pressed. Officer not tell anything that what the defect is. Is there anything that can be debated on this?
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
Sounds to me like it was for an improper braking system...if it was an inspection done by a qualified cmv inspector, the driver would have been given a copy of an inspection report...
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
The CVIR (commercial vehicle inspection report) is not always given on scene.
Lets not forget you don't have to be commercial certified to perform a test of the parking brake or simple braking system test.
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
There is no reason not to give a cvir on scene by a certified inspector...they can be done by hand written form or computer generated, either way, the driver can be, and should be, given a copy on scene...and I did not forget you don't have to be a certified inspector to test the parking brake...
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
But no inspection report was provided afterwards also. Officer just tear off the top white page (original copy- since log book has duplicate yellow copy along with the original) from the log book and took that original copy with him.
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
They are not suppose to take any copy of the log book...they can make copies if they need, but they are not suppose to take copies with them...
Re: Major Defect in comm. Veh. HTA 107 (11)
Is there any legal provision can be offered for this? How this will be proved or say in the court that a police officer can not or not suppose to take any copy of the log book.
Please provide your opinion.
Thanks

No...just proper procedure...nothing in law...if you dropped in to any mto scale and asked any of the officers they would tell you they don't seize them, even if there was a log book violation they don't seize them, they do take lots of photocopies though...I suppose you could track down the officer and ask him for it back as you need to keep it in the Carrier's records...One copy to the Carrier, one copy stays in the log book...the driver was not charged with a log book violation therefore it is of no real evidentury value to a major defect charge...I doubt it is anything the officer can get into trouble over, lots of them do it...it would be an educational thing...he is obviously not cvsa trained...
I got a speeding ticket on the 401 by Cornwall. The officer said I was going 140 initially then dropped it to 130 (for the record I don't believe for a second I was going 140, that's way faster than I would ever intentionally drive). I filled out the info on the back of the notice to request a…
I was recently charged with stunt driving on a 60kmh road. When I was pulled over, the officer told me I was going almost 100kmh (still 40kmh above the limit) but was charging me for stunt driving because I accelerated quickly from an intersection on an empty road (in a straight line). I know…

Are any non-domestic vehicles "pursuit-rated" in North America? Also have the Michigan State Police (this is relevant because apparently they have the most accepted selection/testing process) tested any of them to see if they meet their criteria? Just curious...
Ottawa, Canada (AHN) - Beginning Tuesday, or April Fool's Day 2008, fines on Quebec drivers caught overspeeding will be doubled. It is not only the money penalty that will go up, but also demerit points.
The new law, Bill 42, is similar to Ontario's street racing rule. It stipulates fines for…
Hi,
A friend got a ticket Jan. 9th of this year for doing 110 kph in a 90 kph zone, so 20 over.
What should the set fine and total payable read?
It's confusing to me, as the prescribed fine under HTA s.128 is different than the set fine enumerated by the Chief Justice of the Ontario Court of Justice.
Wh…
An OPP officer ticketed me claiming I was going 40km/h over the limit (140km/km) on my way home with a few friends on the 401. This is my first ever speeding offense. Although I am sure I was over the limit, I am almost certain that I was not going 40 over, more realistically closer to 30 over. The…
Hi Guys,
Yesterday night I was charged for stunt driving (excess over 50km/h) and I have a few inquiries. I'm sure you've all heard the same story, but the unmarked cop in an SUV was tailing me for a good 2-3 minutes as I was travelling 120~135 km/h. Then as he came close I decided to boot it up…

I had a speeding ticket in May 2013 which brought me to 9 demerit points out of 15. I received a letter and had to attend an interview. Due to a history of speeding tickets and a previous interview a few years prior, the interviewer decided to put me on zero tolerance for a year. Meaning if I…
