If you drive in Toronto, you know the roads can be a bit of a jungle, so it can be helpful to know what’s waiting for you out there — like where Toronto’s speed cameras are and how big a fine they can slap you with.

The City of Toronto introduced the automated speed enforcement (ASE) program back in 2020 with the goal of making streets safer, especially in « community safety zones » near schools and places with vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists.

Here’s how it works: If your car speeds past one of these cameras, it takes a photo, and the ticket gets sent to the registered owner of the vehicle — regardless of who was behind the wheel.

While ASE tickets don’t come with demerit points since they can’t be sure who was driving the car, the fines alone are enough to make you rethink hitting the gas. Toronto’s speed cameras can issue tickets for up to $720, depending on how fast you’re going — and if you’re 50 km/h or more over the limit, you’ll receive a court summons instead.

According to the City, over the first two years of the program, speeding in areas with active cameras dropped by 45%, and the average speeds in these zones decreased by 7 km/h. Last year alone, speed cameras in Toronto issued nearly 500,000 tickets.

Currently, Toronto has 75 speed cameras — three in each of the city’s 25 wards — and they rotate every three to six months. The locations are based on data like traffic volume and past collisions, so they’re strategically placed where they’re expected to have the biggest impact.

If you’re wondering where they are as of January 2025, you’ll find the full list of their latest spots below. Keep them in mind the next time you hit the road!
