Fines would range from $2,000 to $50,000. This legislation would affect ail commercial vehicles operating on Ontario high- ways. Those vehicles include trucks that weigh more than 4,500 kilograms and buses designed for carrying 10 or more passengers. Examples of these types of vehicles include larger delivery vans, dump trucks, tractor trailers, school buses, intercity motor coaches and city buses. Vehicles flot included would be taxi cabs, most pick- Up trucks, mini vans, small recreational trailers, ambu- lances and hearses. While. fines range from $2,000 to $50,000, the deci- sion on the amount levied would bc made by the court. In sentencing, the court would consider ail factors surround- ing the offience, including the nature, severity and cause of the wheel separation incident as wehh as the defendant's prior record. The conviction and fine cati be appeahed.
