The highest number of speeding tickets for surveillance cameras from June to July<\/p>\n
The Toronto High Park area, famous for speeding vehicles and frequent traffic accidents, accounted for more than 10% of traffic violation tickets caught by speed cameras in June and July.<\/p>\n
According to data released by the City of Toronto on the 6th, out of a total of 43,412 tickets issued by a total of 50 cameras installed in the city, 4,539 tickets, the most for a single camera, were issued at Parkside Drive south of Algonquin Avenue.<\/p>\n
This straight road down the east side of High Park connects Bloor Street, Queensway, Lakeshore Boulevard, and the Gardiner Highway.<\/p>\n
The area has been frequently cited by locals as a speeding problem, and in October of last year, a 71-year-old man and a 69-year-old woman were killed by a speeding vehicle.<\/p>\n
First introduced by the City of Toronto in July 2020, 50 surveillance cameras are currently installed in 25 locations in the city, changing locations every few months.<\/p>\n
The Toronto City Council recently approved 25 additional cameras, for a total of 75 cameras.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
