Of the 43,412 tickets handed out by the 50 cameras in those months, 4,539 were issued by a camera on Parkside Drive, south of Algonquin Avenue, in the High Park area, according to the latest figures provided by the city on Tuesday. The area has often been cited by community members as a speeding problem and was the site of a fatal crash last October that claimed the lives of a 71-year-old man and a 69-year-old woman. More recently, cyclists using High Park have attacked the police for speeding cyclists within the park, saying they should focus on vehicular traffic on surrounding roads where speed is an issue. Toronto police said they continue to enforce speeding on surrounding streets and have the ability to do both. The city moves the speed cameras to different locations every few months, and they are now placed in a fifth set of Community Safety Zones to help reduce speeding in areas of safety concern. Fines from tickets increase with the speed recorded. The latest figures released by the city show there were 1,656 repeat offenders in the city in June, with one driver receiving 10 speeding tickets on Stilecroft Drive, west of Sharpecroft Avenue, in the York Center area. There were 890 repeat offenders in July, with one receiving six speeding tickets on Denison Avenue, south of Grange Avenue in the Spadina Fort York area, and another receiving six speeding tickets on Stilecroft Drive.
