Highway 400, QEW, and Hwy 401 scale stations and OPP roadside patrols routinely inspect e-bikes. Without a valid bilingual compliance label, the vehicle cannot be classified as a power-assisted bicycle — it becomes an unregistered motor vehicle on the spot. Officers at MTO stations have impounded non-compliant units during commercial transport checks.
