The Edmonton Police Service is once again warning motorists to slow down in school zones after a blue Dodge Ram was found travelling 122 km/h in a 30 km/h school zone yesterday afternoon.
On Friday, Oct. 2, 2015 at approximately 2:20 p.m., West Division officers were conducting a speed enforcement blitz in the area 95 Avenue and 153 Street.
A 25-year-oldmale was caught travelling four times the speed limit in a school zone where children and others were present.
“This is extremely concerning,” said Staff Sergeant Barry Maron with West Division. “This individual is very lucky that no one was hurt as a result of his thoughtless actions.”
Brodie Rae Christensen,25, who possesses a graduated driver’s license, was issued a mandatory court summons and was charged with dangerous driving under the Criminal Code and careless driving under the Traffic Safety Act.
Christensen is expected to appear in court on Nov. 2, 2015.
