Councillor Dianne Saxe, who first introduced the penalty increase, said fines of only $200 were insufficient in deterring drivers.The increased fine targets cars parked illegally on designated snow routes, as well as vehicles that idle while picking up or dropping off passengers, or briefly stop to run errands. The new changes aim to prevent the transit chaos witnessed during last winter's heavy snowstorms, when streetcars were often blocked by cars parked by snowbanks.One viral incident saw Toronto residents quite literally push a car that had blocked a TTC streetcar, and the City says the new measures are designed to prevent similar disrup...
