LA Times: Glendale Gives Up on Red Light Cameras

 

From the Los Angeles Times:

Glendale police will no longer issue citations for red-light violations caught by cameras set up at four intersections throughout the city, officials said.

The decision, which took effect Feb. 24, was made because the program had become a burden on resources and police needed the officer assigned to reviewing violations out in the field, officials said.

The city of Los Angeles ended its red-light camera program last year.

Zero safety benefit

Notice in the article how the city sites every reason EXCEPT that there was zero safety benefit realized over 4-years.

I guess it's best not to torpedo your former business partner's entire business model when letting the contrat expire.

See, I read it and to me it says, "The program wasn't lucrative enough."

Removed

I marked the Glendale locations as removed, and they'll be dropped from the files published next week.
