Jacksonville FL Red Light Cameras

I read somewhere that they were going to get rid of those cameras all over, a supreme court decision or something.

in that area are the speed cameras on the I-95 ,

JM, thanks for making all of this possible. I for 1 appreciate all your hard work.

Thanks once again. I travel the entire state of Florida and these updates come in very handy.

I think redlight cameras cause more accidents and then benefits. I would normally have no problems going through an amber light and so would the person behind me. Last time this happened I stopped because the light was yellow but the person behind thought I would go through and rear ended me. In TO the ticket charges are above $300.

I drive on average 50-65 miles a day as a newspaper photojournalist in Central Florida. Most of that driving is city driving vs. interstate. I've seen my fair share of erratic driving incidents and a few rear end crashes at red light camera intersections since the advent of cameras, for sure.

Can you tell me if the new RLC for Jacksonville has been updated?

Yup. At the moment there are 18 cameras located at 14 intersections. These are all included in the published camera files.

The city has recommended 6 additional cameras, but these are not yet approved (or installed).

Thanks again for the heads up. I've got an upcoming trip up there and I'm glad I'll have those intersections loaded in my GPS.

Thanks, it is good to know that the updates are current.

JM, FYI I have noticed a red light camera that is located just before Kingsley ave and Blanding blvd that is not in my redlight camera POI.

What is puzzling is maybe I haven't been driving long enough, but I can't remember a time when stoplights didn't have a yellow light. Why is it that now with rlcs, yellow means stop?

The rlc is not armed on yellow. To get a ticket, there has to be a pic of your vehicle behind the stop line when the light turned red, and another of your vehicle proceeding through the intersection ON RED.

If the installation of a rlc means drivers stop using common sense and stop on yellow, what is it that engineers are supposed to do?

Those who insist rlcs increase accidents, do you actually pass through rlcs every day going to and from work? Do you witness such accidents all the time? Or are you merely speculating?

Hi Brentr~

Can you take a picture and send it to me?

This location does not come up in either my city or county source information.

Thanks~

Next time I am in the area I will take a pic.

Brentr,
Iam sure the RLC camera your talking about between Kingsley and Blanding Blvd (in Orange Park, Fl) is the one at Debarry Ave. Debarry runs off Kingsley and there is a RLC there. It was activated 3/14/2013 for the 30 day trial period

The road/ redlight just north of Kinglsley and Blanding has cameras. My GPS does not pick that one up. I do not believe that the Kingsley and Balnding intersection has a redlight camera.

Ok I guess I am confused. What I thought was suppost to be RLCs are just cameras which I notice quite a few in Orange Park. I am not sure what kind of cameras they are.
