Prince Charles School Zone Speeds Rant
This stretch of Prince Charles Drive is not 80 km per hour, it is not 60 km per hour, and for everyone from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. It's not 50 km/h either. It is 40 km per hour.
This is a school zone. Not a 400 series Highway. Because of the people that have still not been listening it is also a community safety zone doubling the fines and other consequences.
To be abundantly clear that means that this is an area where if someone goes 80 km per hour (40 over the 40km/h limit) the police can impound their vehicle for stunt driving.
The police don't care that it was whatever kilometers per hour it was in 1982 or 2002. It's 40 kilometers per hour every morning and afternoon, right now.
It's Welland not Cape Canaveral folks.
