An appeal from a conviction for entering inaccurate information in a daily log contrary to Ontario Regulation 555/06 section 27(1) under the Highway Traffic Act.
The appellant was charged with maintaining inaccurate records regarding duty status times in a commercial motor vehicle logbook.
The trial justice found the appellant guilty and imposed a fine of $400 plus costs.
On appeal, the appellant challenged the conviction on three grounds: insufficient evidence of inaccuracies, misinterpretation of the legislation regarding on-duty and off-duty hours, and failure to prove the vehicle was a commercial motor vehicle.
The appellate court dismissed all grounds of appeal and upheld the conviction.
