Heavy duty should be tested along with safety 11b inspections. One stop shopping. In depth inspection including temperatures and pressures along with visual inspection done by mechanics with drive clean certification.

Ban Glider Kits. Appears to be loop hole in system. It makes no sense buying a 2018 truck and putting a non emission 2000 etc motor in at time of purchase. Same would go for motor replacement. Just like a car in the 2018 motor needs to be replaced, it must be replaced to same capabilities as the original motor.

More power to enforcement officers, part 3 summons should be an option vs tickets.

More enforcement officers on the roads for both LD and HD

Education. Public needs to be aware even that there is no emission tests for LD, enforcement still on the roads for road side inspection and emission systems must be in line with original motor as currently in regulation

Officers require same testing equipment as Drive clean and/or manufacturers. After market is not reliable.

HD/LD standards for visible and equipment should apply to all vehicles in the province, including working in the province. Prevents companies or public from registering an out of province vehicle and operating in Ontario.

Constructions vehicles need emission standards for visible emissions. Ie Vac trucks, dosers, dump trucks that have diesel engines.

Officers should have HTA authority for cross program findings. Ie. Expired plates, Expired or no insurance. Suspended drivers etc. Officers have to release the drivers as not in scope of authority and pose risk and liability on province if released with no power to enforce while being inspected for MECP matters.

Government mentions hard stance, but enforcement ability is short of those comments. Powers and fine abilities
