A Canadian city has suspended its automated speed enforcement programme after an overwhelming 32,000 motorists were caught breaking speed limits in just three weeks, prompting concerns about adequate warning signage and community impact.
The City of Vaughan's council voted to pause the controversial camera system following mounting complaints from residents, including elderly citizens who stopped attending social activities due to accumulating fines. Mayor Steven Del Duca announced the suspension will remain in effect until September 2025, whilst officials develop more effective warning strategies.
