It seems drivers in Saskatoon have not fully adjusted to lower speed limits in school zones.
Saskatoon police issued 285 tickets Wednesday as part of a safety initiative targeting school zones with the 30km/h speed limit back in effect as of S

The initiative continues on Thursday. The fine for speeding in a school zone starts at $140, and goes up every kilometre over the 30 km/h limit.
