Question: In Ontario, what is the winter-tire rule?

Answer options:

  • Mandatory all year
  • Not required ✅ recommended
  • Studded tires only

Correct answer: recommended

Explanation: The Official MTO Driver's Handbook states that winter tires are highly recommended for all vehicles during cold weather because they provide superior traction and handling when temperatures drop below seven degrees Celsius. Unlike Quebec, Ontario does not legally mandate winter tires, making "mandatory all year" incorrect. While "not required" is a legal reality, it fails to capture the official handbook safety stance. "Studded tires only" is incorrect because studs are restricted to Northern Ontario. G1 candidates must recognize that MTO test questions emphasize official safety recommendations over mere legal minimums, making "recommended" the correct answer to select.
