Highway Traffic Act
The Highway Traffic Act (French: Code de la route, HTA; "the Act") is a statute in Ontario, Canada regulating the licensing of vehicles, classification of traffic offences, administration of loads, classification of vehicles and other transport-related issues. First introduced in 1923 to deal with increasing accidents during the early years of motoring in Ontario, and replacing earlier legislation such as the Highway Travel Act, there have been amendments due to changes to driving conditions and new transportation trends.
