Peel Regional Police have launched the 2025 edition of Project E.R.A.S.E. to crack down on illegal street racing and stunt driving across the GTA. Charges have surged by 154% since 2022, with over 2,100 issued in 2024 and 32 vehicles seized in the past two weeks alone. In Brampton, fines up to $800 target both racers and spectators, supported by multi-agency enforcement and citizen reporting tools. Councillor Rowena Santos is piloting an online tool for residents to flag reckless driving hotspots and support safer streets.
