What is the National Safety Code for Motor Carriers?
The National Safety Code for Motor Carriers sets minimum performance and safety standards for drivers, including medical standards. The Code creates uniform standards across Canada, so that a driver licensed in one province/territory is considered licensed in all provinces/territories. Medical standards for drivers were developed by medical advisors and provincial and territorial motor vehicle licensing authority administrators.
