Yup, DoFo wants more booze accessable to drivers and no speed cameras.
He took the side of the cars over humans in the war against cars.
I'm with you on this franky...If DoFo gonna remove them speed cameras...IMO they should issue refund to all the fines they charged through those cameras.

Weird, speed cameras were legalized in 2019. Who was premier in 2019?

Are we giving this man credit for calling for an end to (not ending) a problem he specifically created?
The Kathleen Wynne government amended the Highway Traffic Act in 2017 through the Safer School Zones Act, 2017. This legislation authorized the use of automated speed enforcement (ASE) in specific areas, including school and community safety zones.

In December 2019, the Ford government implemented O. Reg. 398/19, which granted municipalities the ability to use ASE cameras on their roads. This regulation outlined the requirements for how municipalities can implement these systems, including the need for specific signage and the process for issuing speeding tickets.

So who's responsible ?? Take your pick!

Since these speed cameras are in places well known and have signs indicating there is speed cameras, why would anyone get caught? Are they stupid?

Dofo sound more like Trump trying to run stuff he has no authority.

Same thing as bike lanes.

Dofo has done nothing yet on the tariff releive effort. He just hope that the feds is going to bail him out.

Sure, he's a scumbag but even a broken clock is right twice a day. This is a cash grab and just another way to tax already over taxed residents. I applaud him for this. (Hi Frank 😘)

It's a purely voluntary tax grab on careless drivers.

FFS, these speed cameras have FLASHING LIGHTS and warning signs as you approach them!!!!

If you are not paying attention enough to your driving to see the signs and slow down to the speed limit for the next ten seconds... then you EARNED the right to pay the tax on careless stupidity while exercising the privilege of operating a 2-3 tonne machine at over the posted speed limit. And in areas that have been designated (by data), as dangerous or otherwise trouble spots.

I got a Red Light ticket a few years ago. Clear intersection at Dixon and Carlingview,, sunny Sunday morning with no traffic, cyclists or pedestrians. Was a bit late for brunch so decided to speed up for the amber instead of slowing down. Turned red while I was accelerating. Too late to slam on the brakes.

Busted! $350+ IIRC.

I don't run ambers any more. Not even where I know there are no red light cameras. So, while some folks don't learn, I did and so do others.

Keep 'em in place and slow the fuck down. 10km/h means you save mere 3-4 seconds between stop signs.lights, intersections, traffic.

Funny how all these righties who whine about how unfair these tickets are, also feel that warrantless searches etc are fine 'if you got nothing to hide' etc.

I just don't understand that mentality. 🤷‍♂️

I can see your point but the bigger issue is the way they set them up to ding you for almost nothing. Also you have zero ability to contest it. We said you owe a fine and there is nothing for discussion. Pay or else. It's just a tax tool to take advantage of the masses.

SO if you're going 72km in a 70k zone you deserve a fine? Or if you're going 70 in a 70 and you have video footage to prove your innocence but have no way to present your innocence you deserve a fine?

These speed cameras are not in the 70 km zones. Also what is the word limit don't you not understand?

Just like drinking under the influence of alcohol, the limit is 0.08%... if you have 0.081% is over limit. You don't need to be that smart to understand this simple concept.

Yes, but a wide swath of morons are not only just selfish, stupid, irresponsible, reckless and lawless.

Yes, dumb and dumber should just stay in frickin lanes and do their jobs without all of their culture war bullshit.

Yes, but Doug knows bike lanes like he knows what weighing less than 240 lbs feels like

Yes, but he dons the Captain CaCa Canada cape and unitard as if, all da time.

A man or a buttercup, which one are you?

If you can't do the fine, don't the crime and then whine.

Just basic manly man traits.

I guess I just outed myself as a feminine soyboy. :rolleyes: 🤦‍♂️ Really intelligent contribution to the thread my friend.....So if my car is going 70 and a machine designed to rip people off says I was going faster, my desire to right that wrong makes me some how less or not masculine at all. That makes a lot of sense. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

My apologies, I can only engage with people of a certain intelligence level and I've realized you're disqualified.
