MTO Vehicle Inspection Sticker Ontario — Annual Safety Inspection Labels
Ontario commercial vehicles require annual safety inspections under Highway Traffic Act s.84(1) and O. Reg. 611/05. These fleet inspection tracking labels — Made in Canada on 7-Year outdoor vinyl — give fleet managers a fast visual confirmation of each vehicle’s inspection status without digging through paperwork at a roadside checkpoint.

Placement Guide
- Apply to lower driver-side corner of windshield (consistent fleet-wide placement)
- For vehicles without windshields (flatbeds, tractors): apply to cab door interior, driver side
- Do not cover inspection station stickers, safety certifications, or licence plate stickers
- Clean, dry surface required — adhesion fails on oily or dusty glass

Pro Tip: Ontario’s nearest MTO weigh scales are Vineland (Hwy 20), Fort Erie (Hwy 3), and Port Hope (Hwy 115). Officers at these locations run CVSA Level I walk-up checks. Fleets with clearly labelled inspection status consistently clear faster — the three seconds it takes an officer to confirm compliance at the window is the difference between a brief stop and a 90-minute audit pull.
