Jon Burnside (Ward 26) is seeking to place roaming stop-sign cameras on City streets. Mr. Burnside, a former police officer, said he will pitch the idea to city council’s public works committee at its meeting on Thursday. “What I am looking to do is get the province together with the city and with the Toronto Police Service to investigate the potential of this. The reality is, we have a lot of concerns about pedestrian safety and traffic in general and the only way to really change drivers’ behaviour is by increasing the likelihood of getting caught,” Burnside told CP24. He said the cameras would not be stationary but would move from stop sign to stop sign.
