65 Camino and I pulled my 94 Regal out of his driveway this past weekend, its been there since September. I know an older couple in Markham and she just lost her job, so now she's home, stuck there really because they have one car. So I figure, here have this old Buick to run around in.
Ok, just need insurance and what not in their name, only way to do this is a lease, Ok so we do a lease for a buck, now the Ministry says to me that if I renew the plates no Drive Clean test, if we get new plates for them needs Drive Clean test, my birthday in November their birthday is September.
Does anyone know the rules well enough to figure this one out? The ownership is still in my name, plate side in their name.
PS. I took it for a test and it passed with flying colours, just wondering why it had to be tetsed.
because the Gov needed the 30 bucks ...Is it because of your locations? Here in Clinton, 50 miles north of London, we "dont" need a test, but in Exeter, 30 miles north of London you do??
A 1994 model would need to be tested this year (2009) if it has not been done within a year or the new owner's birthdate but does not have to be tested until their birthday if it has been done in the past twelve months, needs only to be tested for transfer if it has not been done within the last twelve to the day.
When you lease a car and put your plates on it, you are responsible for drive clean, it's no different than if you were leasing the car from a dealer. Dealer is not responsible for having it pass drive clean every two years, you are.

Wow, that sounds complicated. The thing is I retained ownership, she said if I just got a renewal no e-test but somehow the birthdate of the leasee triggered this, being September 2009 ? OR are you saying it is treated as a transfer on today's date so it needs an e-test.
Anyway it was done. The ironic part is here is this "crappy old North American car" that has been under snow and not moved since September, we pull it out, change the oil and drive to the test centre, it passes without even being close to any factor limit. Meanwhile the owner of a 2004 Toyota is in their wondering what to do because it failed. I was laughing to myself.

yes it has to do with the lessee birthdate-but it would be done in September and only if its last e-test was prior to sept 2008
Can anyone figure this one out for me?
