Mounties Crack Down on Speeding: Drivers Still Going Too Fast in Construction Zones, Say Police

The provincial government doubled the fines for speeding in construction zones in 2007, but police say motorists in New Brunswick are still driving too fast. In a little over three hours police issued 61 tickets for speeding in one construction zone, which includes one motorist travelling at 160 km/h. For the safety of both workers and motorists, police plan to conduct enforcement throughout the construction season using radar detectors.
