Speed Watch
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 North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP, ICBC, and CCP&ES.
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.

Volunteers are the heart and soul of our community. Become a Volunteer
Trained volunteers working in pairs, arrive in our Community Policing van, and use radar with a large electronic display. It’s an effective way to encourage safer driving in specific areas.
The program sponsored by the North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP, ICBC, and CCP&ES.
Police will be increasing enforcement throughout the province and our Cowichan Valley volunteers will be conducting “cell watch” deployments to remind drivers to leave the phone alone. For lots of information on how to help combat this see ICBC Distracted Driving Campaign
