“Red light runners cause right-angle T-bone collisions that are some of the worst and most deadly,” said Joe Avsec. “The Region of Peel is committed to exploring solutions that contribute to the safety of our residents. Applying red light cameras to new locations will condition drivers to improve awareness in these zones too. The best move all drivers can make is to be prepared to stop. There’s no good excuse for running a red and it’s not worth the risk.”
To be clear, signage does exist to warn drivers that they're in a red light camera area.
As for how the it all works, the camera is triggered when a vehicle enters the intersection on a red light. Photos are reviewed by the Provincial Offence Officers and tickets are mailed to owners of the vehicles. The set fine for running a red light is $325 and includes a $60 victim surcharge and $5 court cost.
