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.

It’s a Skill issue, just don’t speed, it’s literally so easy. If you can’t control your speed just take the bus or a taxi!!

When 80 zones go down to 70 and 60 zones fuck that shit. New houses got built, the limit was 80 if people don't like living near an 80kmh road, don't buy that house... It was bad enough being forced to do 60-70 because people took ages to get up to the limit when it was 80. Now we're doing 50-60 because the same people struggle to get up to speed once again.

How about everywhere that isn't a side street just becomes an 80 zone and we start aggressively ticketing distracted drivers, distracted pedestrians, and people who can't handle things like driving in the correct lane, and people who can't properly use a turn indicator? You know, the actual problems...
