Owen Sound Police Decide To Enforce Traffic Laws And Catch 17 Drivers In Two Days

On Monday September 19, the Owen Sound Police Service began a traffic enforcement campaign that focuses on distracted driving, failure to obey traffic signs and non-compliance by heavy trucks driving on roads where a prohibition exists. The purpose of the campaign is to enforce violations of driving laws with a goal to enhance public education and road safety.

Over the last two days a total of seventeen (17) charges have been laid for drivers who have committed the following infractions:

Speeding

Fail to stop- Red light

Disobey sign

Failing to wear seatbelt

Distracted driving

Failing to display front licence plate

Safety on our city roadways is a shared responsibility by all drivers.

The campaign will run until Friday September 30.
