You might think that roads of Toronto or Vancouver might be\nthe most expensive ones but quite surprisingly, there is another city that\ntakes the throne. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Folks from the CBC\u2019s Marketplace ran down a data analysis of\n15 million tickets which were spread over the prominent Canadian cities in the\nlast five years: Calgary, Halifax, Toronto, Vancouver, and Winnipeg. Here are\nthe stats:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Calgary: <\/strong>283,070\ntickets were handed out and the total charged fines are equal to $20,981,665.\nThis means that per day, 776 tickets were issued while the average fine was $74.<\/li><li><strong>Halifax: <\/strong>181,790\ntickets were handed out and the total charged fines are equal to $5,002,915.\nThis means that per day, 498 tickets were issued while the average fine was $28.<\/li><li><strong>Toronto: <\/strong>2,168,493\ntickets were handed out and the total charged fines are equal to $99,872,770.\nThis means that per day, 5,941 tickets were issued while the average fine was\n$46.<\/li><li><strong>Vancouver:\n<\/strong>392,636 tickets were handed out and the total charged fines are equal to\n$32,315,090. This means that per day, 1,076 tickets were issued while the\naverage fine was $82.<\/li><li><strong>Winnipeg:\n<\/strong>158,388 tickets were handed out and the total charged fines are equal to\n$13,623,860. This means that per day, 434 tickets were issued while the average\nfine was $86.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, Winnipeg turned out to be the most expensive\ncity amongst all five cities, as drivers had to pay $86 for ticket. However,\nwhat this data does not state is the fact that there is some relaxation for the\nticketed individuals; it is possible to decrease your fine if you are quick to\npay. With the exception of Toronto where the complete payment of fine is\nmandatory, other Canadian cities offer similar relief. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, compared to Toronto\u2019s 46$ fine, the charges in\nWinnipeg are quite costly. Moreover, if we compare it with Halifax, then the\ndifference widens further. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trouble for Winnipeg\u2019s driver does not end here. Some of\nthe spots known for the biggest occurrences of ticketing in Winnipeg had signs\nwhich were either not visible properly or contained baffling signs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, often Canadians who visit the state\u2019s biggest\nhospital, Health Sciences Centre, have to park their vehicles across the\nhospital at William Avenue. However, there is a fine associated with the spot\nif a parking exceeds the defined three-meter crosswalk limit despite that the\nfact that it is hard to identify and considering the fact that many people come\nto the hospital with a troubled mind, the ticket is particularly harsh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.parkingforme.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-4 size-full\" title=\"Parking For Me\" src=\"http:\/\/www.parkingforme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/logo8080.png\" alt=\"Parking For Me\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"><\/a>\n\n<p>By using the services of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkingforme.com\/\">ParkingFo<\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"r (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.parkingforme.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">r<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkingforme.com\/\">Me<\/a>, you can get a parking slot within few minutes as a driver.
