Open calculatorCanadian trucking regulations are split between federal and provincial jurisdiction. Hours of service (HOS) rules and the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) mandate are set federally under SOR/2005-313 (Hours of Service of Commercial Vehicle Drivers Regulations) and apply to all interprovincial and international carriers. Axle weight limits are set provincially — each of the 10 provinces publishes its own weight tables, and limits vary significantly between jurisdictions.
Canada's ELD mandate came into full effect in January 2023 for federally regulated carriers. Drivers subject to federal HOS rules must use a certified ELD to replace paper log books. The Hours of Service Calculator helps drivers and dispatchers check remaining driving time under the federal Cycle 1 (7-day / 70-hour) and Cycle 2 (14-day / 120-hour) rules without counting through a paper log.

Spring weight restrictions are a Canada-specific factor that affects carriers from roughly February through May depending on province. Frost depth, road base quality, and thaw timing all determine when restrictions lift and what reduced limits apply during the thaw period. The Axle Weight Calculator includes spring restriction periods and reduced limits for all 10 provinces.
These tools are used by owner-operators checking their own compliance, dispatchers planning loads across provincial borders, and fleet managers verifying that a loaded configuration is legal before dispatch.
