Daycare safe-arrival rules and tow-truck industry changes were among several new laws and regulations that took effect in Ontario on New Year’s Day.
All child-care operators must now develop a policy outlining how they will closely monitor the arrival of children.
The changes are intended to prevent the rare, but horrendous deaths of young children inadvertently left in hot cars.
Several changes to the tow-truck industry are also now in force, including new customer rights.
Those will include the right to provide consent to tow a car, where it will be towed, access to the vehicle after the fact and rights related to invoices and payments.
