Accidents and driving habits in certain parts of GTA
Have been going to brampton for some recent project work..taking hwy 50 or sometimes hwy 27.
Everytime I cross hwy 7 , have this sort of anxiety and feeling of being extra careful...even a google search of just "hwy 50" comes with a accident wreck.
Many drivers in rush, trucks changing lanes as if they are 4 wheelers and need to get ahead
Just this morning a young driver hauling a 16 wheeler was noticeably checking phone coming out of a gas station...I made a gesture to keep the phone down and was responded with hands gesture of sort of mind your own business..!
And then you have appeals from victims for hit and run etc..to come forward...looks like the situation is getting worse..
having said that - can't we have GoPro like cameras within all traffic lights/or posts, where they keep last 2-3hrs recording, and that should be enough to track most violations or accidents. Whats the point of many of us getting dash cams, that's just watching out for ourselves.
It's not perfect but what else can be done to deter such drivers and influence better driving habits? A disruption in this space is needed.
