§The Law
O. Reg 369/09 + HTA — Ontario Regulation 369/09 — Power-Assisted Bicycles
“A power-assisted bicycle that meets all requirements of O. Reg 369/09 is treated as a bicycle under the Highway Traffic Act and does not require a driver's licence, vehicle permit, or insurance.”
View official regulation text✓Plain English
If your e-bike meets all PAB requirements (500W, 32 km/h, bilingual label, working pedals, 120 kg or less), you do not need a driver's licence, vehicle registration, or insurance to ride it in Ontario. This is the entire legal purpose of the compliance label — it is the rider's proof of PAB classification.
