The inspector says that the trend of speeding tickets is one that “surprises” officers, given the presence of traffic enforcement in the region.
“It seems to continue, so that is obviously a concern,” he says. “We are going to keep being out there.”
Where are the tickets being issued?
Inspector Aune says that tickets are issued in all zones, including on highways, as well as in 50 km/hr zones and school zones.
