Taking Action on Impaired Driving in Toronto - by Councillor Jaye Robinson, seconded by Councillor James Pasternak

Through our Vision Zero Road Safety Program, the City of Toronto has demonstrated a commitment to enhancing the safety of our streets for all road users. In 2019, City Council adopted my motion to enhance the Road Safety Program by developing a campaign to combat impaired driving in collaboration with relevant stakeholder groups. It's critical that we continue taking action to reduce the impacts of impaired driving, in-line with our Vision Zero Road Safety Program. With traffic levels continuing to rise, it is important for the City to employ a coordinated strategy to address impaired driving in Toronto.

an update on efforts underway to address this issue as well as additional measures that can be taken, including a jurisdictional scan for best practices in other municipalities; and c. details on actions taken to-date following City Council's 2019 direction to develop a campaign to stop impaired driving in collaboration with Mothers Against Drunk Driving Canada, Arrive Alive and other relevant stakeholders with the funding allocated for Vision Zero education and engagement programming. 2.
