Truck drivers and commercial trucks in Canada have now entered a new era of hours-of-service compliance in most provinces as the long-awaited introduction of the third-party certified Electronic Logging Device (ELD) mandate came into force on January 1.

The rule applies to all federally regulated carriers and provincially regulated carriers in some jurisdictions, that are already required to operate a logbook.

The provincial trucking associations that form CTA have compiled an updated chart which explains what to expect in each jurisdiction with respect to enforcement that started January 1. Click here for details:

CTA is encouraging the supply chain to review and consider the impact of hours-of-service compliance on routes and shipments.

For more information on specific provincial rules, please contact the relevant provincial trucking association directly.
