Quebec’s highway safety code outlines regulations and standards that professional drivers must comply with, including speed limits, service hours, vehicle maintenance, and alcohol and drug testing. The maximum speed limit for trucks on Quebec’s highways is 100km/hr, and drivers must comply with specific hours of service regulations that limit the number of hours they can be on the road each day. Additionally, drivers must undergo regular safety inspections to ensure their vehicles are in good working order, including brakes, tires, and lights. Finally, alcohol and drug testing are mandatory for all professional drivers in Quebec to prevent impaired driving and ensure the safety of all road users. By adhering to these strict traffic rules, professional drivers contribute to a safer and more efficient transportation system in Quebec.

To begin your career in professional driving, you must obtain your Saskatchewan Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 Professional Driver Licence.
