The province is replacing its old program with DriveON, a system which uses an android tablet that communicates with the ministry while the technician does the inspection
For decades, the procedure to certify a vehicle for the road in Ontario consisted of a comprehensive inspection by a licensed technician at a licensed inspection facility.
The actual inspection procedure and pass/fail criteria is not currently being addressed as it already went through a major overhaul in 2015. That’s when the antiquated inspection criteria were replaced with new guidelines that took into consideration changes in vehicle technology. As the technician performs the inspection, they input measurements and take pictures that are uploaded to DriveON. Even though I have not had a ministry auditor contact me during an actual inspection, DriveON literature suggests that it is possible for an auditor to log on to your system while a technician is performing an inspection and view the inspection using the tablet’s onboard video camera.
