HB 1324: Automated traffic cameras

Regulating automated traffic safety cameras.

Summary

  • Authorizes local jurisdictions to employ the use of automated traffic safety cameras after first enacting local ordinances that allow for their use in detecting speeding, stoplight, and/or railroad crossing violations.
  • The cameras may take pictures of only the vehicle and the vehicle's license plate, and only when the violation is occurring.
  • A new penalty classification is created, the "automated traffic infraction notice," which when issued for a violation captured by an automated traffic safety camera, must be mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle.
  • Fine revenue generated by automated traffic infraction notices will be retained by the issuing local jurisdiction.
