Has anyone encounter this before at the weigh stations. Wheel break not equipped with indicator - Commercial motor vehicle. Highway traffic act Ontario Regulation 587 (Pursuant to section 207 (1). It's not the first and won't be last time that trucks are pulled in for inspection but it was the first time we got ticket for this. Ticket is for $490.00 and it was at Milton scale

I read that as well but I have checked other company trucks and most of them don't have visual indicator. But I'm sure this is what they are talking about, Now how many trucks on the ONT hwy have them.
-
I read it as the owner of the truck is getting cited, for the actions of the driver. -
tinytim Thanks this.

Yes It's a Ontario Regulation. That's the problem that even though it's only in Ontario why truck dealers are not aware of the regulation and offering visual indicators.
tinytim Thanks this. -

I'm in BC. Take your truck in for the every 6 month (yes, 6 ##### months) CVI, and they'll check your brakes, and if you don't have the indicator on them, they'll be installed by the shop. I would assume that the other jurisdictions that require them, the shops would do the same.
MartinFromBC Thanks this. -
I wonder if you could go back on whomever did the ON inspection for not doing a proper inspection.

Should the buyer install push rod indicators before hits the road or is dealer responsibility to sell trucks in compliance with provincial laws? Not many drivers are aware that can be fined 500$ and bunch of points on CVOR, driving a new truck out of dealer gate.Attached Files:
