Please note the sign at Nicola St. (northbound) at W. Georgia which directs traffic to turn right only. It is dangerous to cross busy lanes on Georgia to turn left. Disobeying this sign also impedes vehicular flow. 21 VTs in less than an hour at $121 and 2 demerit points each.

Traffic Enforcement @VancouverPD has avid motorcyclists on and off duty. But, "unnecessary noise" goes against MVA Regs and is annoying for many @CityofVancouver residents and visitors. All 4 received fines. #RespectYourNeighbours #DriveSafe #WeAreOutThere
