Who may perform truck inspections:

Drivers only
Police or ministry enforcement staff
Only licensed mechanics
Vehicle owners only

The correct answer is: Police or ministry enforcement staff

The correct answer is that police or ministry enforcement staff are authorized to perform truck inspections. These personnel have the responsibility to ensure that vehicles meet safety and regulatory standards as established by the Ministry of Transportation in Ontario. Their training and authority allow them to conduct thorough inspections to check for compliance with safety regulations, which is vital for maintaining road safety. While drivers, licensed mechanics, and vehicle owners may have roles in inspecting trucks, it is specifically the police or ministry enforcement staff that have the structured authority and regulatory backing to conduct official inspections. Drivers are responsible for daily vehicle checks for safety and operational issues, mechanics perform maintenance and repairs, and vehicle owners can oversee their vehicle's upkeep; however, they do not hold the same authority or mandate as enforcement staff when it comes to formal inspections.
