The appellant appealed the Registrar of Motor Vehicles' order cancelling its Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR) certificate and seizing its plates.
The Tribunal found the appellant was related to another carrier whose safety certificate had been suspended in British Columbia, as the other carrier controlled the appellant's operations, truck leases, and insurance.
Given the related carrier's poor safety record and the appellant's own worsening violation rate—including hours of service violations, lack of insurance, and multiple collisions—the Tribunal concluded there was reason to believe the appellant would not operate commercial vehicles safely.
The Registrar's cancellation and seizure order was confirmed.
