Green licence plates
Green-licence plates for environmentally friendly cars offer perks such as free parking and access to high-capacity commuter lanes.
"By this time next year, Ontarians who buy environmentally friendly, low-emission cars and trucks would get a green-hued licence plate that entitles them to such possible perks as free parking and access to high-capacity commuter lanes. The so-called 'eco-licence' plate is one of three green transportation policies the province is hoping will encourage commuters and businesses to factor the environment into their spending decisions. 'Now we're saying we're going to also put some more factors on that table to help you make a decision that's good for your family and good for the environment,' Environment Minister Laurel Broten told a news conference [on Wednesday]. Broten said the government will consult with vehicle manufacturers and environmental groups to design a rating system that identifies the cleanest cars, light trucks and commercial vehicles. Drivers of those vehicles would get the special licence plate, which would entitle them to added rewards... The licence plates are expected to be launched by spring 2008."
