It’s insane the amount of truck drivers who can’t reverse, have no concept of hills, can’t keep between their lanes and simply a danger to everyone on the road..
Like it’s beyond out of hand, and has been for years.. our complacency in this is becoming like Americans and school shootings, like we literally had a schoolbus of kids killed/ injured at the cost of 5y in prison. What are we even doing anymore?

Ontario’s Minister of Transportation is a Brampton MPP. The chance of this being adequately addressed is zilch (and it’s probably why this was allowed to fester in the first place).

According to people I knew in the industry a few years ago, the amount of corruption and bribery for passing grades was ridiculous. As a result there were many incompetent drivers, I wonder if it has gotten any better.

I think all of Canada should crack down on this. It’s so common to be driving on the road and just seeing them wearing airpods talking on their phone using their phone..meh very irresponsible.

Tell Doug to hire more inspectors and enforcement officers. It’s like whack-a-mole with these truck driving schools.

Regular driver licensing and training too, please
I quit driving a few years ago after 20 years. Wages aren’t there so the quality of drivers is declining fast.
The US is taking steps to address this issue,
