Currently, the home address of drivers and vehicle
owners in Ontario is not released when vehicle
and driver record searches are conducted by
individuals. If you know the plate number of a
vehicle, you can find out the owners name and,
in most cases, the owners driver licence number.
Once you know the drivers licence number, you
can find out the drivers driving history. It is
difficult to balance the apparent need for access
by third parties to information contained in the
Driver Licence Database and Vehicle Registration
Database with the need for an appropriate level
of privacy that is expected by the public. While
various organizations may be able to access your
personal information on the Ministrys databases,
there are formal agreements in place that limit the
use and disclosure of this personal information
by these organizations. If an organization does
not follow the terms of agreement, the Ministry
can terminate it.
