After more than 32,000 speeding tickets were handed out in just three weeks by new automated speed enforcement cameras in community safety zones, council in the City of Vaughan decided to pause the program.

Mayor Steven Del Duca put forward the motion last week to pause the tickets until September, when council is due to receive a report from staff on ways the city can create more effective signage about the presence of cameras.

The goal is to reduce speeding drivers, not to collect revenue.

Then there's cities like Winnipeg where successive city halls have decided that speeding tickets are the bestest cash cow ever!

That cash should go directly into the city to redesign these problems roadways created for cars into streets designed for people.
