To raise public awareness around distracted driving and pedestrian safety, Mayor Tory has recorded a 30-second radio PSA asking drivers to "keep your eyes on the road, obey traffic signals, and slow down."
 
Seventeen pedestrians have been killed on Toronto roads in 2016, and many of the victims have been seniors over the age of 60.
 
"I believe one death on our roads is one too many," Mayor Tory says in the ads.
 
The radio spot has been distributed to Toronto stations and will begin airing on Sunday.
