The May 24th weekend marks the culmination of Road Safety Week.
RNC Constable Steph Myers says officers pulled over dozens of vehicles within the first few hours of traffic enforcement activity in a school zone in Torbay yesterday.
That included one vehicle driving at nearly three times the posted speed limit.

“This afternoon we had a vehicle in a school zone traveling 81 kilometers an hour in a 30 zone. So that vehicle has been impounded, the driver’s license has been suspended and that’s just kick-started our day here. We’ve only been out a couple hours with this initiative and we’ve already seen a vehicle seizure.
“There are significant speeds on our roadways. These are choices that drivers are making. They’re completely preventable and it’s putting everybody at risk.”
