Toronto, Ontario Speed Traps

Just before the ESSO gas station on your right as you coming down a small slope on Lawrence Ave East.

Ive seen them on both sides but mainly when your heading west on York Mills towards Yonge, they hide 2-3 streets up the hill.

It is difficult to comply withthe posted 50 km/h speed limit when entering a ravine east of Islington and the police are waiting at the church on the west side of the ravine to pull people over. The area closer to Islington is also a problem because it’s a school zone and people who don’t make a point of slowing down get hit with a major fine.

Just as you exit the gardiner to continue east on lakeshore, just after the speed limit drops to 60 kmh, they park 2 or 3 cars and come out onto the road and flag you down. Traffic flowing at 100+ kmh comes of the gardiner, and it’s not uncommon for drivers to still be doing 90 as they get onto Lakeshore

There is a school there in addition to a couple hills. So, the cops would set up their traps on Mt Pleasant and Blythwood and again at Bayview and Blythwood. It’s a double wammy. Be careful after going down the hill and again when you are going up.
