Volunteer for Speed Watch in your Community

Be a Speed Watch Volunteer

Speed Watch is a community based program to help raise public awareness of speeding in school zones, playgrounds and other problem speeding areas and encourage slowing down for the safety of our community. It is sponsored by the Shawnigan Lake RCMP, ICBC, and SCCPAS.

Trained volunteers, deployed in pairs with the Community Policing van, using RADAR and an electronic display reader board.  Help reduce speeding in your community … become a Speed Watch volunteer.

Cell Watch – Leave Your Phone Alone

Distracted driving is now the second leading cause of car crash fatalities – ahead of impaired driving – and is the leading cause of rear-end crashes which often result in injuries. Our campaign includes enhanced enforcement and new education.
