Ombudsman Notes Too Many "Ghost" Licenses
Ontario's ombudsman is warning "ghost'' driver's licenses could be posing a real problem on the province's roads.
When a driver is stopped by police and doesn't have a licence, the Ministry of Transportation creates a ghost licence to officially record the offence.
Andre Marin says the province isn't doing a good job of matching up its 36-thousand dummy licences with the real ones, allowing many people to continue to drive when they shouldn't be.
