Speed limiter requirements will apply to vehicles that were manufactured in 1995 or newer with a manufacturer’s GVW rating of 11,794 kgs (26,000 lbs) or more. Only commercial motor vehicles with an electronically controlled engine are subject to these regulatory requirements.

The speed limiting system of these commercial motor vehicles shall be properly set to no more than 105 km/h or 65 mph. Buses, mobile cranes, mobile homes, ambulances, cardiac arrest emergency vehicles and fire apparatuses will be exempt from the regulation.
