I don't understand why people need lots of warning that breaking the law is illegal. Were you speeding? Yes, but I didn't know I was going to get caught! Oh, well ok then. I say tax the speeders, red light runners, and smokers. I wish they could better police tailgaters though. I love it when I see someone run a red light and then seeing that flash of light. They see it as well.
I'm talking about reasonable enforcement in school zones and other high risk areas, not camera's on every corner set at 2 kph over. I'm generally in favour of increasing speed limits on freeways.

Toronto is ridiculous now ....if it was not for family and my business I would be out of here in a heartbeat (although I make a run from here any chance I get)......Sure is not what it used to be.
Just plain tired of this over accommodating , over populated , over priced , high crime , decaying infrastructure and public relation style of Policing and local governing where little gets done and incorrectly.
Toronto and world class should not be used in the same sentence ...20 or 30 yrs ago we had a chance now there's no chance it's ever going to be better than what it used to be .

30 zones are all in school zones aren't they? How could you be embarrassed being passed? 30 is slow but kids are unpredictable.

lol, I been passed twice in school zones in Etobicoke doing 40 limit. For one lady there was a cop doing a safety check, he didn't have a speed laser and watched the suv pass me. Then he stops her and guess what, I had to sit and wait for 5 min while he talked to her and she gets no ticket.

My biggest problem with all of these initiatives is that they seem to target the automobile. If you suggest that pedestrian's have a shared responsibility for their safety, then you called out for victim blaming. Reality is this. When a car hits a human, human gets hurt, often seriously injured. That fact alone should not obfuscate the pedestrian for being responsible for their safety. Walking with head down, not being aware of surroundings is the responsibility of the pedestrian. It is an accepted practice that at intersections, where the red human starts to flash, pedestrians are supposed to NOT enter the intersection. This is to allow pedestrians to finish crossing and for cars to complete right turns. In other words, encourage traffic flow. Instead, now we give pedestrian's advance to enter intersection, further slowing traffic flow and they continue to not have any accountability for entering intersections clearly illegally. Pedestrians don't have red light cameras, only cars do.
Lastly, and the part that everyone forgets is that 100% of the population depends on vehicles. Your food, your child's teacher, your doctor, the plumber all use cars to provide the services you use. Directly or indirectly, everyone uses cars. The war has to stop but it never will.....
