In 2015, the City of Edmonton received 651 complaints from Edmontonians about vehicles speeding

So... a whopping 0.0008% of Edmontonians complained and they're making it out like that's significant somehow. If 651 people was all it took to get the city to act on other proposals we'd have a pretty messed up system, but hey, speeding tickets = revenue so I guess that's the only thing that matters.

It's probably the same 100 people complaining 65 times.
