The initiative was intended to get drivers to slow down in residential areas where the chances of motorists striking a pedestrian are that much greater. Police are reminding motorists the faster they drive, the longer it takes them to stop and driving just a few kilometers over the Halton police wrapped up Project Five-O last Thursday (June 18) after issuing 153 speeding tickets during the eight-day traffic initiative, which saw officers targeting motorists who speed on residential roads where the speed limit is 50 km/h.
