Who We Are
The Alberta Transportation Safety Board is established under the Traffic Safety Act (TSA). It functions as the final administrative authority charged with making operator licence determinations. The Board conducts hearings in relation to driver conduct, the reinstatement of licenses for suspended drivers through the Alberta Administrative Licence Suspension Program (AALS) and the Alberta Zero Alcohol Tolerance Program (AZAT), impaired driving convictions through the Ignition Interlock Program, and early release of vehicles under the Vehicle Seizure Program. In addition, the Board functions as the appeal body for decisions of the Registrar, relating to driver training schools, driver instructors, driver examiners, vehicle inspection stations, vehicle inspection technicians, operating authority certificates, safety fitness certificates, carrier safety ratings, exemption permits under section 62 of the TSA, and assessed administrative penalties. The Board is responsible for appeals surrounding decisions and actions taken under the Railway (Alberta) Act .
