Notice! The 10 most common parking ticket minefields in Toronto
Many motorists often have a concern, that is, they must pay special attention to avoid stepping into the “minefield” when parking to avoid getting a parking ticket. Toronto recently released data on parking tickets issued in 2015. Now everyone can use this report to avoid areas where tickets are likely to be issued.
According to statistics, more than 2 million parking tickets were issued in Toronto in 2015, with the highest number of tickets issued in April and July. Especially on April 16 last year, 8,382 tickets were issued, which was the day with the most tickets issued last year.Additionally, the report found that Sunnybrook Hospital, located at 2075 Bayview Avenue near Bayview and Eglinton streets in Toronto, has been the place most likely to be ticketed over the past year. Every year, more fines are issued here than elsewhere. More than 9,000 fines are issued there in a year, which is equivalent to 25 fines every day.
It is worth mentioning that popular areas where fines are often issued, such as hospitals and shopping malls, are not managed by the police. These places are all operated by private organizations. They usually provide professional training to parking administrators to regulate parking orders in their own premises. These parking administrators have the right to issue tickets in their own parking lots to some extent. Said it saves police manpower.In addition to Sunnybrook Hospital, the places most likely to be ticketed are Edward St near Yonge-Dundas Square and James St between Old City Hall and Eaton Center in the city centre.
