Some driver and vehicle fees such as those for written and road tests are going up next month, but the Progressive Conservative government has backed off a proposal to raise all fees this year.

• After freezing driver and vehicle fees last year, Ontario wants to increase them by 2%

• Why electric vehicle owners are urging Ford government to fund charging stations

But new Transportation Minister Caroline Mulroney has announced that while some fees will rise by two per cent on July 12, others won't increase by that amount until July 1, 2020.

After that, fee increases will rise by two per cent every year for four years.

The news of the fee increases comes less than a year after the government froze driver and vehicle fees in Ontario.

Fees that will rise as of July 2020 include those for driver's licence renewals and applications, and vehicle plates, permits and validations.
