Metro Vancouver drivers travelling through Surrey today might want to be careful, thanks to some targeted enforcement.
As part of Project Swoop, a joint enforcement program with collaboration from ICBC, the Surrey Police Service, Delta Police Department, and Metro Vancouver Transit Police (MVTP) will conduct a one-day enforcement campaign in Surrey.
The enforcement campaign will occur around Panorama Village, near Highway 10 and 152nd St.
…
We asked Criminal Lawyer Kyla Lee that question last year.
“It would be too hard to see whether there were other people in the vehicle, such as children or babies who may not be visible through windows. Additionally, some vehicles have tinted rear windows that again would make it hard for a camera to tell whether the vehicle has the required number of people or not.”
One suggestion Lee had for limiting speeding was for manufacturers to cap vehicle speeds at the factory level.
“There is no reason they need to go this fast,” Lee said in a post on X.
We also heard from someone earlier this year who thinks the province should end the default speed limit of 50 km/h.
In any case, drivers travelling around the Panorama Village area of Surrey today should be mindful of the enforcement campaign.
