A new study by the Canadian Automobile Association claims 88 per cent of Canadians are concerned about speeding in residential areas.

One in five respondents admitted they’re part of the problem and are guilty of sometimes speeding.

Collisions due to speeding make up of quarter of fatal crashes in Canada, according to most recent federal government data.

Research shows that driving even 10 km/h over posted speed limits increases the risk of a collision by 60 per cent, and only cuts four minutes off of ones commute.

When asked to list some dangerous driving habits that Canadians admit to doing, 45 per cent admit to speeding on highways, 32 per cent say they use a cell phone while driving, while 18 per cent of drivers admit to getting behind the wheel while extremely fatigued.
