Ontario’s Remedial Measures Program for Impaired Drivers

For offences that take place on or after September 30, 1998, the Highway Traffic Act requires convicted impaired drivers or drivers with 1 or more administrative suspensions to successfully complete Back on Track, Ontario’s Remedial Measures Program, before their licences can be reinstated. Participants must pay a fee of $894 for convicted impaired drivers or $344 for administrative suspensions to cover the costs of the program.

If you are convicted of an impaired offence, you will receive a suspension notice from the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO). The notice includes your remedial requirement and the length of your licence suspension.

You should register for Back on Track a week (7 days) after your impaired conviction or administrative suspensions. It may take up to 11 months to complete all parts of the Back on Track program. Assessment, 8 hour Education or 16 hour Group Treatment workshop and 6 month follow-up.
