安大略省禁止自动速度照相机11月14日,尽管有公众支持和安全证据,但以实物安全措施取代。 Ontario bans automated speed cameras Nov. 14, replacing them with physical safety measures despite public support and safety evidence.

安大略将在11月14日禁止自动超速摄像头, Ontario will ban automated speed cameras on November 14, replacing them with physical safety measures like speed humps and roundabouts, as part of a red tape reduction bill. 州长道格·福特 （Doug Ford） 称这些摄像头是“抢钱”，并表示基础设施的改变将更有效地提高安全性。 Premier Doug Ford calls the cameras a "cash grab" and says infrastructure changes will improve safety more effectively. 一个新的基金将支持地方政府安装替代方案并发起教育运动。 A new fund will support local governments in installing alternatives and launching education campaigns. 包括多伦多市长和市市长在内的批评者认为, 此举破坏了道路安全进展, 研究显示校区摄像后超速率下降45%, Critics, including Toronto’s mayor and city mayors, argue the move undermines road safety progress, citing studies showing a 45% drop in speeding in school zones after camera use. 尽管公众73%支持高风险地区的摄像头,并有证据表明事故减少,但禁令仍在不断推进,针对现有单位的破坏行为增多。 Despite 73% public support for cameras in high-risk areas and evidence of reduced accidents, the ban proceeds amid increased vandalism targeting existing units. 该政策推翻了2018年的一项法律,允许在40个市镇(包括多伦多150个市镇)使用700台照相机。 The policy reverses a 2018 law allowing 700 cameras across 40 municipalities, including 150 in Toronto.
