At the Peel Regional Police traffic enforcement is an operational priority. Based on the 2003 Environmental Scan results it seems most people would agree. Aggressive driving was ranked as the top concern of citizens when asked what they believed was the most serious community problem in this Region.

 

Every year for the last several years, over 30 people have died in motor vehicle collisions in the Region of Peel. There are twice as many deaths caused by motor vehicle collisions as there are deaths caused by violence. This does not take into account the high number of people injured on our roads every year.

 

Receiving a traffic ticket can be a somewhat unpleasant experience. Nobody likes to be told that they have done something wrong. Remember that the police officer is merely doing their job in enforcing the law and trying to keep our roads safe.

 

If you receive a ticket it will be one of two types as described below. Click on the images to learn more about the process to follow for either paying or fighting a ticket.
