Section 107

The owner of a public service vehicle is, unless the owner satisfies the court that the owner took every reasonable precaution to avoid the commission thereof, responsible for every offence committed under this Act or the rules in connection with the use of the vehicle and may, in the discretion of the Registrar, be prosecuted for the offence either in addition to or instead of the driver or conductor, as the case may be.

When the driver or conductor of any public service vehicle is reasonably believed to be guilty of an offence under this Act or the rules, the owner of the vehicle and any other person who was or should have been in charge of the vehicle at or about the relevant time must give to the Registrar or to any police officer any information that the Registrar or the police officer may require of the owner or other person concerning the identity and address of the person believed to be guilty of the offence.

If any person fails to do so within 7 days of the date on which the information was required of that person under subsection (2), unless the person shows to the satisfaction of the court that the person did not know and could not with reasonable diligence have ascertained the information required, the person shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $100.

Despite anything in any other written law, any information given under subsection (2) by any person charged with any offence under this Act or the rules may be used as evidence at the hearing of the charge.
