An update on Verizon Connect and the Canadian ELD mandate

What’s happening?

On June 12, 2021 all Commercial Motor Vehicles (CMVs) operating in Canada are subject to the Commercial Vehicle Hours of Service Regulations for electronic logging devices*. Furthermore, any ELD provider operating in Canada must be certified by an accredited 3rd party authority.

Current state

Our Logbook application operates under the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators (CCTMA) AOBRD ruleset for Canada and is fully compliant today with those standards.  For Canada/US transborder customers, our platform operates under the US ELD ruleset while driving in the US and on the Canadian AOBRD ruleset when in Canada.

Upcoming Canadian ELD mandate for 2021

Verizon Connect is committed to providing a certified Canadian ELD compliant solution in advance of the upcoming deadline.

In the meantime, if you have any additional questions, please reach out to your Verizon Connect customer success manager.
