The Canadian government announced, through Canadian Prime Minister Doug Ford, new decisions regarding the registration of car license plates.
The Canadian Prime Minister explained that drivers will be able to skip the annual registration of their car license plates very soon, adding that the Canadian province of Ontario is working to make this process automatic.
Ford added during the press conference held yesterday, Tuesday, after being asked by a journalist about the increase in the number of expired license plates on Ontario roads.
He stressed that the government is working to completely get rid of this matter, especially after recently getting rid of stickers and financial fees after registering their cars, and the government is currently working to get rid of re-registration.
The Canadian Prime Minister announced that car license plates will be renewed automatically, and people will not have to worry about that at all.
It is noteworthy that Ford announced these recent decisions, after a report found that there are currently more than one million expired license plates in Ontario, as more and more motorists forget to renew now that the process has become free.
It should be mentioned that, as in the United States, each Canadian province has its own set of driving restrictions, which may make it difficult for tourists planning to drive around the country. Although there are a few county-specific restrictions to consider, the disparities are not significant.
Emergency numbers in Canada for drivers
- 911—The main police, fire, and medical emergency number. This number is universal across Canada and should be used in life-threatening emergencies.
- Most counties have a 511 number for road and weather conditions.
- Consider keeping your local police non-emergency number on your phone. Minor situations without injuries or stolen property demand police attention but are not emergencies.
