Road Safety Week ran from the May 18th – 24th, 2023
The annual awareness campaign was designed to increase public compliance with safe driving measures in order to save lives and reduce injuries on Canada’s roadways.
Police services across Ontario focused on behaviours that put drivers, passengers, cyclists, pedestrians, and other vulnerable road users at risk: impaired driving, distracted driving, aggressive driving, and not wearing a seatbelt.
As a result of our road safety week project, 29 charges were laid. (ST23008403)
2 red light offences
1 stunt driving
1 no insurance
1 unsafe move
1 seatbelt
15 speeding offences
2 impaired drivers
3 careless driving
1 stop sign offence
1 novice driver offence
1 driving with liquor readily available
The Traffic Management Unit continues to focus on road safety initiatives. Please continue to drive responsibly and help keep our roads safe!
