(a) There are only three charges that the HTA allows to be enforced by camera. 1. Fail to Stop - Red Light, 2. Fail to Stop/Yeild - Amber Light and 3. Speeding [Yes, Photo Radar DOES exist in the current HTA]
The police may be able to warn someone observed by video evidence... a charge wouldn't stick.
(b) There is no reason why someone blowing a red light or making a turn in front of train in the centre of the road shouldn't be charged. But before you blame the police for being lazy, check out the HTA for a definition of a no-turn sign:
21. (1) A no right turn sign shall,
(a) be not less than 60 centimetres in height and not less than 60 centimetres in width; and
(b) include the markings and the dimensions as described and illustrated in the following Figure:
Illustration of a sign with a no right turn symbol consisting of a right turn black arrow inside a red circle with an interdictory stroke, on white retro-reflective background with a black border. Size indicated (60 × 60) cm.
R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 615, s. 21 (1); O. Reg. 339/09, s. 15 (1).
Bolding was me. Anyone see an issue with enforcement? To the Region's defence, there is now a by-law covering electronic turn signs.
