Westbound traffic on the QEW through Mississauga, Oakville and Burlington is jammed as tow truck drivers stage a protest through the area.

Reports say hundreds of drivers are taking part in the protest that has blocked lanes as they make their way to the Niagara Region.

The drivers are protesting new Ontario measures that come into place next year that are meant to regulate the industry.

Drivers say the measures will control the number of hours they will be allowed to work. They will also be forced to provide a list of charges when assisting a customer.
