Operating Licence

My employer requires all trucks to carry an MTO Operating Licence, issued under the MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORTATION ACT, 1987, dated 1993. Pretty old permit.


No one seems to know what it is, why we carry it, or if it needs to be renewed.


Is it possibly the system that pre-dated the CVOR system?


Is it still valid after 24 years?


Are there any "older" drivers (no disrespect intended, I value your knowledge) that remember or know of this permit?

Just go to Service Ontario and as them to run the number.

You can always go to one of the MTO weigh scale stations and they will run the number on their system...CVOR's are now on an annual renewal...so I would think your number is long since expired...
