Yesterday at 9:44 AM, a taxi driver tried to dodge our officers on Hwy 99 in Richmond after driving in the bus lane. ​Plot twist: Turns out the driver was impaired. ​90-day driving prohibition 30-day vehicle impound ​Bus lanes are for buses—and driving sober isn't optional. – at Richmond, British Columbia

The "morning cheaters" are a massive frustration for everyone playing by the rules. We headed to Delta to catch them in the act: 53 violations issued in 90 minutes. That’s a ticket every 1.7 minutes! The "membership fee" for the Morning Cheaters Club is a $109 violation ticket – at Vancouver, British Columbia

We were out before the sun this morning at Nordel Way / Alex Fraser Bridge to address restricted bus lane. A restricted lane is for authorized buses & designated vehicles only.If you are not driving a bus or a vanpool, you are risking a ticket. ​We issued 33 violations.

🌙 Time change alert! It gets dark earlier, so being seen is key. This morning, we joined the Coquitlam RCMP Volunteers at Buquitlam Station to hand out reflectors and shared tips on night visibility to help keep our community safe. #BeSeen @cityofcoquitlam @cqrcmp – at Coquitlam, British Columbia

Morning wake-up call! ☀️ Our team was focused on Highway 99 in Surrey, enforcing the bus lane. 52 tickets issued to drivers who thought that "I'm late for work" was a valid reason. They discovered that the only thing faster than driving in the bus lane is how fast we issue fines. – at Richmond, British Columbia

We all like to binge-watch our favorite series, but when you're driving, that is NOT the appropriate place. Recently, a driver was caught holding his cell phone to watch a TV show not once but twice in a span of just eight minutes 🤦‍♂️ $736 on fines + 8 points – at Kamloops 1, British Columbia

If tracks are near, always stay clear! Stay at least 50 feet or 15 metres away from railway tracks at all times. #OperationClearTrack #RSW25 #STOPTrackTragedies

You can run, but you can't hide! In May, this vehicle took off from a traffic stop by our members of @MVTP_TMET. Yesterday, while conducting an ALPR operation at Scott Road Station, officers caught up to the driver and issued $2531 in fines and the vehicle was towed.

Around midnight, this individual drove from Clarke to almost Commercial on E. Hastings. Took out trolley lines along the way due to overheight load at 5.18m (max height is 4.15m). Still on scene waiting for crane to lift load and place on lower flat deck.
