ON Int, aO NOTICE 70 ONTARIO MOTORISTS Re Unsatisfied Judgment Fund Fee • • Under an amendment to the Highway Traffic Act enacted in 1947, provision was made for the creation of an Unsatisfied Judgment Fund out of which will be paid, in the manner prescribed, judgments for personal injuries anti property damage sustained. by reason of the operation of motor vehicles, which cannot be collected in the ordinary manner from the judgment debtors, The method prescribed for creating the Fund is the collection of a special fee, when required, from each person to whom h issued either an operator's or as chauffeur's license. .Although to date no fees have been collected from those operating motor vehicles, the legislation has been in effect since the lst of July, 1947,and many judgments have been paid by the Department pending the creation of the Fund. Effective with the issue of 1949 motor vehicle operators' ,and chauffeur? licenses, an additional fee of 50 cents (50c) will be collected from each person to whom is issued a 1949 license, which fee will be known as the Unsatisfied Judgment Fund fee and will be set aside solely for the purpose of creating, the Unsatisfied Judgment Fund. This is not an annual fee and no further fee will bt collected from motor vehicle drivers for this purpose until the Fund is exhausted or so nearly so as to indicate that there is not sufficient in the Fund to pay judgments for a period of at least 'one year.
