Initiatives in Place to Slow Motorist Down


Two new initiatives have been launched aimed at slowing motorists down on Fort Frances roads.

OPP Constable Anne McCoy says one seeks motorists to sign up as part of a Pace Car Initiative.

"When one signs up you make a commitment to obeying the speed limits and other rules of the road," says McCoy, "and you literally setting the example for other motorists."

The other program, "Ticket or Teaching," allows motorists caught breaking the law to avoid a ticket by attending a class showing them the importance of obeying the rules of the road.
