Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Well, called over to the MTO today. Spoke to a very nice lady who looked up my file. She told me it is still waiting to be reviewed and the wait time is 2-6 weeks from the time they get it. First come, first served basis. I feel like I'm under house arrest. Kind of like the guy who sat broken hearted , paid his dime and only..well, you know.

Thanks Mark. From what I understand you have a lot of experience with them. I will try to call them today. The last time I called was a week ago to make sure that they got my fax.

Thanks Mark. I don't see any reason for them not to reinstate my license and my doctor's report along with my lab results should show that. You mention to keep on them. How do you suggest going about that? I have already called once to confirm reciept of my fax and called their automated line twice. The automated line gave me no information other ...

Sorry it took me a while to reply. No license, two kids with the flu, trying to get work done, waiting for my wife to drive me everywhere, etc....

The first letter they sent me with the medical report was to find out if there is a diagnosis of alcohol dependence present.

I guess they were demanding these tests based on the doc's report from the ...

Well,, my wife drove me over today to the local D/L office. I handed over my D/L, signed a form and got a copy of it for my records. Now, I have to wait 2-6 weeks for all my paperwork to be looked at and approved. I'm glad I have a lot of hobbies to eat up any idle time I may have. After my wife drove me over we went over to the local supermarket ...

The first letter along with the medical questionaire/report was only in English. The " official" notice however, came in both languages.

There are a few things I have to mention. The urine test did test for alcohol, the morning of recieving the medical request, and came back negative for ethanol. Hope that shows them something. Secondly, I did have to pay for the report to be filled in. It is not covered by OHIP. Yes I do need my license. Just thinking forward I'm trying to figure ...

Well today is my last day to drive till my license gets reinstated. Had an exam done by my doc, and he asked me all the needed questions for the forms. All my tests came back fine, blood, urine, etc. Faxed all the froms over. Firday I'll get my wife to drive me over to the nearest driver's office to hand in my license. Hopefully they'll see that ...

Thanks. Yes that is what I have to get in the a.m along with my test results. I was told my results are fine as he was talking to his receptionist. I feel fine thanks. Haven't had any alcohol since the day before I went to the hospital. I don't like the way it makes me feel so that's why I went in the first place. In hindsight I should have just ...

Well, checked the mail again just after noon and there it was. The letter I didn't want to arrive. It stated that due a a medical reason my license will be suspended on the 15th. Went by my doctors office to see if my results came back. They did and he told his receptionist to tell me to come back in the morning to get my copies as he was running ...

Thank you everyone for your input and replies. I checked the mail again this morning and nothing has come in so far. I will check with my doctors office to see if the results from my tests have arrived and if so, fax them off right away. No one has yet answered that if the MTO is satisfied with the results, and if my license is susepnded, how long ...

Of which notice then? The one that came with the forms or the official one that is to follow? The unfortunate thing, and I beleieve you to be correct in all your previous statements and quotes of the act, is that I am essentially at their mercy. To fight them right now, based on my situation, may result in my going without a license ( if and when ...

Again, thanks for taking the time to reply to my questions. Yes, this may be a witch hunt as you stated. When I went to see my surgeon at his office to make my pre-op appointment for the required tests before surgery, I had mentioned to him that I had been in the emergency at the hospital and the attending doctor was a bit of an arse towards me. He ...

Thank you both for your responses. I guess I will have to wait and see if anything arrives by mail or registered mail advising me if I am suspended or not. One site with a forum similar to this that I visited had a letter from an individual that stated that a person is not suspended until they recieve official notice via registered mail. Another ...

Does the official suspension come via registered mail? It stated than an official suspension would follow.
