CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — Charlottetown police issued 75 fines to drivers in August for failing to observe the rules of the road — double the amount from the month before.
Charlottetown Police Services classifies the tickets as moving violations of a non-speeding nature, which could mean anything from failing to stop at a stop sign to running a red light.
For comparison’s sake, police issued 37 tickets in July.
The hotspot in August was the Capital Drive/North River Road intersection where 11 fines were issued. Next on the list was the Brackley Point Road/Pine Drive intersection where four tickets were issued. That was followed by Kent and Prince streets where three fines were handed out.
