‘That’s just unacceptable:’ Oceanside RCMP concerned by amount of school zone speeders
PARKSVILLE — Oceanside Mounties are alarmed by more than 100 school speed zone violators in less than two weeks.
Oceanside RCMP Cpl. Jesse Foreman said many of the offenders zipped through school zones going double the limit, resulting in their members continually writing tickets.
Foreman said one of their officers was astounded by a continuous flow violators.
“He couldn’t keep up with the amount of people speeding through the zone, so he had to pick the ones going 20 km/h over the speed limit,” Foreman said. “When school’s in session that’s just unacceptable.”
