FAQ
| Are charges reviewed by a Provincial Offences Officer or are they automatically issued? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| All charges are first reviewed by a Provincial Offences Officer. If warranted, an Offence Notice Penalty Order (fine), with a copy of the captured image, is sent to the registered owner of the vehicle within 30 days, with no demerit points issued. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What times of the day are the cameras active? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| There will be no disclosure with respect to camera active times under the Program. Observing posted speed limits 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, will ensure that drivers are not issued a penalty notice under the ASE Program. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What do I do if I get a ticket? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The registered owner of the motor vehicle is liable for the speeding ticket/penalty notice. Owners disputing the alleged contravention have the following options available to them:

| How are fine amounts determined? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The fine amounts for Automated Speed Enforcement penalties are set out by the Province of Ontario under the Highway Traffic Act Regulation 355/22. The total monetary fine is made up of three components and are set out as follows:
Set Penalty Amount Component
Victim Surcharge Component
Ministry of Transportation (MTO) Search Fee Ministry of Transportation (MTO) Search Fee Component of $8.25.This is the cost the Municipality incurs to access the address and name of the vehicle owner from the MTO. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Are threshold speeds being disclosed? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| No, we do not disclose threshold speeds. Speed limits are not guidelines – they are the law. Driving at, or below, the posted limit will ensure a ticket is not issued. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Are demerit points issued? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| No, demerit points are not issued. A fine is sent to the registered owner of the vehicle, regardless of who may be driving the car. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Why does the registered plate holder receive the ticket instead of the person who was driving when the ticket was issued? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Under the Highway Traffic Act, drivers can be held responsible for how their vehicles are being used. ASE systems cannot capture images of drivers or passengers so owner liability is in effect and results in the registered plate holder receiving the ticket. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| What is a Community Safety Zone and where are they located in BWG? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| A Community Safety Zone is an area designated through a By-law (that is passed by council) to identify it as a road segment of higher risk or concern. Certain Highway Traffic Act fines (including speeding) are doubled in Community Safety Zones, which are mostly located close to schools and school zones. |
