This road sign is for ALL road users. It’s no secret that #StopSigns mean #STOP. Your vehicle, bicycle and feet must stop moving completely, look around in all direction and continue when it’s safe to do so. #TrafficSafety @TorontoPolice @ScottBaptist @TDotCop

#VZET - A speeding ticket frequently leads to other issues and offences. This Investigation in @TPS22Div revealed the plates were not registered properly as well as insurance issues. Vehicle off the road. ^bm @torontopolice @cityofto @scottbaptist @tpstrafficdc @oacpofficial @caasco

Our @TorontoPolice #VZET Enforcement officers are focused on #VisionZero & will be in @TPS22div & @TPS51div today. #SlowDown & watch for vulnerable road users or expect to receive a ticket. @ScottBaptist @TDotCop @cityofto

#VZET - avoid the urge to speed up when traffic volumes lighten at night. Expensive lack of judgement #slowdown ^bm @cityofto @oacpofficial @torontopolice @shawnacoxon @pcpappytps @officerarsenault

#VZET officers out across @TPS14Div and @TPS43Div today. A wide variety of work and offences seen - speed, distracted, stop sign running, aggressive, stunt driving, no insurance, etc. This driver lost their DL and car for 7 days ^bm @scottbaptist @tpstrafficdc @torontopolice @cityofto @oacpofficial

The @TorontoPolice are clamping down on impaired driving over the holiday season as part of the annual #HolidayRIDE that starts this weekend. Aim for zero alcohol & drugs when behind the wheel. http://torontopolice.on.ca/newsreleases/48574

What was the highest speed ticketed in Toronto in 2020? It was given in April to a 19-year-old class G2 driver of a Mercedes on the Gardiner Expressway for 202km/h in a 100 km/h zone. His licence was suspended and car impounded for 7 days. For Stunt Driving, the driver faces upon conviction:... - between a $2000 and $10000 fine - up to 6 months in jail - up to a 2 year licence suspension The case is still before the courts. Is it worth it? #Speedkills

A @TorontoPolice #VisionZero team member #VZET stopped & charged the driver of a motor vehicle traveling 113km/h in a 50km/h community safety zone on Yonge St. #StuntDriving = licence suspended, vehicle impounded & parents not happy. @ShawnaCoxon @ScottBaptist @tdotcop @yourtrafficcop

The @TorontoPolice @ParkingTPS Unit is resuming #RushHourRoute Enforcement as of this coming Monday November 23rd, 2020. Fines are $150 plus towing costs; to avoid it all together don’t park illegally. @ScottBaptist @TDotCop @tpsmotorsquadto @TPSTrafficDC @YourTrafficCop

When driving your SPEED is one thing that is 100% in your control. Travelling at or below the speed limit allows time to react to the environment around you. It’s always important, but even more so on #Winter roads. #SlowDownToronto @TorontoPolice @ScottBaptist

Our @TorontoPolice Enforcement officers are focused on #VisionZero & will be in @TPS53div this afternoon. #SlowDown & watch for vulnerable road users or expect to receive a ticket. @ShawnaCoxon @ScottBaptist @TDotCop @YourTrafficCop @TPSTrafficDC

While out conducting #VisionZero enforcement and education, this school bus was seen failing to stop at a red light. There were no kids onboard. The driver received a $325 ticket. Please follow all traffic laws no matter what you drive. This is for everyones safety. ^sm

#VZET - another driver taking unnecessary risk in lower speed areas. It’s a 50 zone for a reason. This speed is for the DVP or Gardiner Expressway. ^bm @torontopolice @scottbaptist @shawnacoxon @officerarsenault @pcpappytps @oacpofficial @cityofto

We came across a fantastic #TrafficSafety message from our friends at @southlakepoliceandfire who have simply nailed it! Their message is simple, when using #crosswalks Look Left And Right. It’s a message #Elmer would happily endorse. Long live #Safety and #Disco! @TorontoPolice Posted @withregram @southlakepoliceandfire People of the Village of Southlake, we’ve got another hit single sweeping the disco nation. We’ve got a police officer. We’ve got a construction worke...r. We’ve got a firefighter. And with football season under way, we wanted a COWBOY cowboy, so we asked our friend Demarcus Ware to join us in this little ditty about crosswalk safety. Look left and right, fair citizens! Thank you to our eternal friends DeMarcus Ware for his snazzy dancing and thank you to @rjaymusiq for once again laying down our tracks in such a professional manner LONG LIVE SAFETY AND DISCO! #VillagePeople @dallascowboys #Disco @demarcusware #DallasCowboys #disco @nfl Posted
