New Traffic Cameras
New Traffic Cameras have been installed everywhere. I sat and watched several intersections recently. I noticed that many cameras are aimed at the right turn lane. The camera's flash is triggered when a cars front wheel crosses the white line at the intersection. This trigger not only takes a still photo of the license plate on the back of the car but I have read that there is a video that begins recording at that moment and continues for a pre-determined amount of time. The videos and still are then processed at the camera company and often re-processed at the individual policing agency that issues the ticket. I was surprised that so much emphasis has been put on the right hand lane. As I sat and watched many, many vehicles triggered the cameras. They seemed to come to a complete stop on or just beyond thee painted stripe. Be very careful to stop before the stripe. If you do not, I suggest not commencing through the red light. Stay right where you are until you clearly have a green light. That way as the video is viewed there will be no question that you had run the light since you in fact stayed until it was green.If you received a traffic ticket, would like to reduce the points on your driving record, would like to reduce your insurance premiums, or would simply like to become a better driver by learning about current traffic laws - take an online course with e State Traffic School.
