School zones will be in effect after the long weekend is up.

The speed limit in a school zone is 30 km/h and fines for speeding in a school zone are higher than regular tickets and were recently increased.

Exceeding the speed limit by 20 km/h is a $310 ticket.

When you add up the base fine, the excess km/h charges, and the victims of crime surcharge, a vehicle ticketed 40km/h over the limit = $570.
