Toronto adding 75 speed cameras to improve safety

Toronto is increasing its automated speed cameras from 75 to 150. The city will add 25 permanent cameras and 50 mobile cameras in areas with high speeding and crash rates, focusing on community safety zones. The initiative aims to enhance road safety rather than generate revenue. City officials emphasize that fewer speeding violations would be ideal, as it would indicate improved driver behavior. Warnings about the new camera locations are already posted, as the city must provide 90 days' notice. The speed camera program is part of Toronto's Vision Zero plan, which seeks to reduce traffic-related deaths and injuries.
