7 · Wednesday, January 13, 2010 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.oakvillebeaver.com Fewer road deaths in Halton last year Ten people died in motor vehicle collisions on Halton's roads in 2009, seven fewer than the previous year and the lowest number since 2005, according to the Halton Regional Police Service. Police are crediting education, engineering and enforcement with helping to achieve the more than 40 per cent reduction, though it said typical causes of collisions still remain. Police said alcohol played a role in three deaths and not wearing a seat belt was a contributing factor in four deaths in 2009. Of the 17 deaths in 2008, police found alcohol was a contributing factor in four of them and not wearing a seat belt in two of the deaths. Last year's statistics marked the second straight year fatalities declined in Halton, despite population growth in the region, after a worrisome 2007. There were 22 deaths on Halton's roads that year, essentially double what had been seen in each of the three previous years. An aggravating factor in 12 of the deaths in 2007 was speed, while alcohol played a part in six and not using seat belts in four cases, according to police. In 10 deaths that year, distractions -- including cellphones -- were a contributing factor. At the beginning of next month, drivers who text, type, e-mail, dial or chat using a hand-held device could be fined up to $500 under Ontario's new distracted driver laws. However, 9-1-1 calls while driving are exempt. $2.00 off Present this ad at the door & SAVE $2.00 off adult admission January 23 & 24, 2010 Burlington Convention Centre, 1120 Burloak Dr. & QEW The Perfect Match...
