A 30-year-old woman from Ajax was charged with excessive speeding in the area of Mayfield Secondary School May 10.
Caledon OPP reports an officer was conducting radar enforcement on Mayfield Road when he spotted a white 2011 Mazda going 116 km-h in a posted 60 zone.
The woman’s licence was lifted on the spot for seven days and the car was impounded for seven days.
Police said the Ministry of Transportation states that “fines are doubled in Community Safety Zones, near schools and public areas. These areas are clearly marked with signs.”
Police remind motorists that speeding, following too closely, making unsafe land changes and failing to yield right-of-way are all forms of aggressive driving. These actions place all road users at risk.
