On March 28 this collision took place in #Mississauga. We charged the at fault driver with dangerous and stunt driving. He was released with conditions not to drive. Last night our SRT found him driving and arrested him again. @PeelPolice @PRPRoadSafety 1)
Wear a reflective🌟tag/item at waist level to help increase your visibility as we start to lose daylight hours moving into the fall 🍁.

I wanted to take a moment to recognize the incredible officers who responded on Tuesday to the stolen car incident. They demonstrated immense courage & phenomenal tactics to apprehend this criminal while prioritizing everyone’s safety. A job well done! #Peel#CommunitySafety

Yesterday a driver was caught doing 99km/hr in a 40 km/hr school & community safety zone.
PRP laid charges, seized drivers licence & car.
Together- as a community, let’s discourage driving that puts our kids at risk.
#Back2School#drivesafe
Remember to STOP 🛑 when you are approaching a school bus that has their red roof lights flashing & their stop arm out. This applies to both directions of traffic, unless separated by a median.
Failing to stop for a school bus is nearly $500 & 6 Demerit points.
#StaySafe
Happy back to school!
A reminder to keep your speeds down in school zones to protect our students.
Our Road Safety Services officers have already laid over 40 tickets to drivers in school zones. Please drive carefully!
