Since the Ford government’s speed camera purge last November, new data shows that Ottawa’s drivers are speeding in school zones more frequently. A recent report from Ottawa’s Public Works and Infrastructure Committee says the removal of these cameras has decreased speed compliance and increased high-end speeding. This was highlighted by Tuesday’s midday collision on Heron Road, as a car flipped onto its roof just outside of an elementary school. What’s also alarming is that stop-arm cameras on school buses are catching dozens of drivers failing to stop for school buses on Ottawa’s roads. Orleans South-Navan councillor Catherine Kitts is the Vice-Chair of the Public Works and Infrastructure Committee. She joins Kristy Cameron on today’s Ottawa Now.
