New Pilot Speed Camera Program in P.G. County, MD

 

"The Prince George's County Police Department is beginning a pilot program to test laser-based speed camera guns with tablet computers that allow officers to catch and ticket speeders in real-time without pulling them over."
"Unlike the traditional box cameras or the cameras attached to poles in Prince George’s County, these cameras would require an officer to point and shoot like old radar guns. But unlike radar guns, these new laser systems are attached to a tablet that generates the violation in real-time. Officers would not be required to pull anyone over, but rather they would simply confirm or reject the ticket on the tablet."

MD is one of the most aggressive red light & speed camera supporters in the country. Can the rest of you be far behind???

Most importantly, there's no way to identify location for mobile ticketing if they're not in the same location from day to day!!!

Bon chance!

Everyone rails at the portable cams and complains they are unfair because the ticket isn't written by a sworn LEO. With PG County's new system, you still get the ticket in the mail but it was issued by a LEO using a laser gun. The chance you will take is if points will be assigned because you were ticked by a sworn officer who will testify he witnessed the infraction. So what's your complaint? You asked for a ticket to be issued by a LEO and now you are complaining?
