Rowena Santos to Advocate for Safer Driver Training Standards

Regional Councillor Rowena Santos is urging reforms in Ontario’s driver training and examination standards following a Highway 401 incident involving Premier Doug Ford. She will present a motion endorsing the Auditor General’s recommendations to combat fraudulent instructors and examiners. Santos emphasizes Brampton’s investments in road safety but highlights the province’s responsibility for driver training oversight. The initiative seeks GTHA council support and provincial action to protect lives and improve driving standards.
