Can we all agree that ticketing only those drivers going more than 10km/hr over a posted speed limit in a school zone is a pretty generous threshold? www.thestar.com/news/gta/wha...
Text: According to a source with direct knowledge of the ticketing process, the threshold for a ticket from a Toronto speed camera is never less than 11 km/h over the posted limit. And although sources say they’re aware of at least one Ontario municipality where driving less than 10 km/h over the limit can result in a ticket, the Star can confirm that the GTA’s other large municipalities use the same threshold as Toronto.
