Operation Safe Commute, Starts Monday, January 30, 2012

On Monday, January 30, 2012, 14 Division officers will be initiating a zero tolerance enforcement campaign entitled “Operation – Safe Commute”.

The campaign will end on Sunday, February 5, 2012.

The daily commute in and out of Toronto involves approximately 1.2 million vehicles. All road-users share the responsibility of making this daily commute safe.

A safe and orderly commute, in and out of the city, contributes to a better quality of life for all citizens.

High traffic volumes contribute to reduced road safety as well as increased driver frustration, commute times, and congestion. Commuter frustration often results in aggressive driving, traffic signal violations, illegal parking and traffic gridlock.

Police and Parking Enforcement Officers in 14 Division will be paying special attention to infractions that impede the safe and orderly flow of traffic. They will focus on aggressive driving offences, prohibited turns and gridlock offences as well as No Stopping, No Standing and No Parking restrictions.

Road Safety is everyone’s responsibility. Here are some traffic tips to help promote a safe commute:

1) Plan your route and take your time
2) Pedestrians: be alert of your surroundings – be predictable and visible
3) Cyclists: follow all the rules of the road
4) Motorists: look for pedestrians before making a turn
5) Motorists: obey all traffic and parking regulations

For further information, contact Sergeant Stephen Burns at 416-808-1400
