CVOR suspension overturned as the operator demonstrated significant recent improvements in its safety compliance record.
The Appellants appealed an order of the Registrar of Motor Vehicles suspending their Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR) certificates for 15 days due to a high safety violation rate identified in an audit.
The Tribunal found that while the Appellants had a poor safety record in the past, they had since taken significant steps to improve compliance, resulting in a dramatically lower violation rate in a subsequent audit.
The Tribunal concluded that upholding the suspension would be punitive rather than remedial, and directed the Registrar not to carry out the suspension order.
