I know all too well what a vehicle can do to a pedestrian : RCMP

“When you’re standing by the side of the highway and a vehicle passes you traveling at the speed limit, or higher, its very intimidating,” shares Sgt. Erin Lockyer of RCMP Combined Traffic Services Saskatchewan (CTSS) for Yorkton, Broadview and Fort Qu’Appelle. “The faster the passing vehicle is going and the bigger it is, like a semi, it creates almost a vacuum where you feel like you are going to get sucked down the highway with them. I was a Collision Reconstructionist for 15+ years and I know all too well what a vehicle can do to a pedestrian.” A two-day joint traffic safety initiative took place on April 27 and 28 on major highways around the communities of Yorkton and Melville. “The focus was to identify vehicles passing emergency vehicles at speeds higher than 60 km/hr,” said Sgt. Lockyer. “Education is critical, especially in spring when traffic volumes increase. We want to have this safety message stick with motorists throughout the coming seasons.”

By Mitchell Blair Here’s a story you won’t hear very often. Maple Creek RCMP say they were on patrol April 17th when they noticed a Lamborghini, a Ferrari and an Aston Martin speeding on Highway 21. Officers caught up to the trio who were travelling in excess of 180 kilometers an hour in a 110 zone. The three received a total of $3600 in fines with all three vehicles being impounded.  Officers also learned one of the drivers had just taken his vehicle out of winter storage and had failed to properly register his vehicle. This is not the only strange story being reported by Saskatchewan RCMP.

Driver reading display in miles per hour fined $910

Some confusion on a drivers display has led to a hefty fine. Combined Traffic Services Saskatchewan pulled over a vehicle on April 8, west of Colonsay that was travelling 160 kilometres per hour in a 110 kilometres per hour zone on Highway 16. The driver had indicated he did not know why he was being pulled over, and officers learned that the display on the driver’s vehicle was reading mile per hour and not kilometres per hour. The driver did not know he was travelling at such a speed. He was checking his gas mileage, which led to the switch. The display was changed back to kilometres per hour and officers fined the driver $910.
