RED LIGHT CAMERAS- NEW in FL

 

HI.. I have not been able to setup on my GPS the stuff you guys talk about regarding red light cameras.. Not sure this is the correct FORUM for this.. Please feel free to put in the correct forum. grin

This is info for whomever puts this info together..

New Red Light Camera laws in the state of Florida.

Four Red Light Cameras Turned On
Now motorists will have four new traffic light cameras to heed at three busy intersections. They will monitor:

(1) Southbound traffic on 26th Street W. at Cortez Road

(2) Westbound traffic along State Road 70 at Tara Boulevard,

(3) Northbound traffic at U.S. 301

(4)southbound approach at 60th Avenue East near the Ellenton Premium Outlets.

Whether the cameras improve traffic safety – or just represent a steady flow of revenue for governments – is hotly debated.
Code Enforcement Chief Joe Fenton told County Commissioners today that red light cameras are working well toward curbing red light running in Manatee.

He thanked Melissa Wandall for championing the cause to make local roadways safer. Wandall’s husband, Mark, was killed in Manatee County by a red light runner in 2003 at the intersection of S.R. 70 and Tara Boulevard.

Traffic violations at Manatee’s two red light intersections have gone from a high of 1,297 last November to 255 in April 2013.

Drivers who run red lights at Manatee County intersections are subject to a $158 fine.
