What started as silly banter on X, turned into a full-on Metro Vancouver Transit Police project, who've taken it upon themselves to crack down on drivers illegally using bus lanes.
Police fined 55 drivers for being in the bus lane at two separate locations on the Lions Gate Bridge and Iron Workers Memorial Bridge in West Vancouver and North Vancouver on Thursday, July 31, according to an Aug. 1 news release from Metro Vancouver Transit Police.
Fines of distracted driving, driving without a licence, speeding, and impaired driving were also given to 68 drivers.
The West Vancouver Police Department says residents have grown infuriated with those not following the rules of the road.
This project is the collaboration of multiple Metro Vancouver police departments including North Vancouver RCMP, West Vancouver Police and Transit Police.
