Ontario Cracking Down on Auto Theft and Careless Driving
TORONTO — The Ontario government is cracking down on auto theft by introducing legislation that, if passed, would create a new provincial offence for fraudulent vehicle registrations. This is one of a series of measures being taken by the provincial government to fight auto theft, including providing additional funding and equipment to police services to tackle auto theft and introducing legislation that would suspend the driver’s licences of those who are convicted of motor vehicle theft, including lifetime bans for repeat offenders.
