It’s not unusual to spot a dog’s head or nose sticking out of the window of a passing car – having the wind blow through their fur and taking in all sorts of scents. It can be an exhilarating experience, and it’s no wonder they enjoy it.

On the other hand, a driver caught with a dog in their lap may be in for an expensive surprise. According to the Ontario Provincial Police, there isn’t a specific charge for having a dog in your lap, but it could be considered a crowding the driver’s seat charge.

All new OTIP registrants and their eligible family members can sign up for the Starling Minds tool with one of these access codes: member or familymember

To simplify the registration process, OTIP worked with Starling Minds to implement one code for all members (Code: member) and one code for their families (Code: familymember). Codes are not case-sensitive.

 Only first-time users need this access code to register for an account with Starling Minds. (Members/employees who have already registered or have a Starling account will not be impacted by this change.)
