Saskatchewan police soon will be getting the green light to assess stiffer penalties against drivers who are stunting, racing or speeding excessively on the province’s roads.
The provincial government introduced amendments to The Traffic Safety Act on Wednesday, which will allow police officers to immediately suspend a driver’s licence and impound their vehicle if they’re charged with stunting, racing or excessive speeding.
The legislation is expected to be proclaimed during the spring sitting of the legislature.
“This is the first step in strengthening the penalties for stunting and racing in Saskatchewan; our government also intends to increase the fines for these offences once the amendment has passed,” Minister Responsible for SGI Don Morgan said in a media release.
“As well, by better defining what constitutes racing and stunting, police can more easily enforce these offences, and put a stop to these dangerous behaviours.”
As well, The Traffic Safety Amendment Act, 2021, will clarify the rules around road and speed signs in municipalities, and clarify that suspended drivers will be allowed to drive to SGI-mandated driver evaluations under approved supervision.
