Wellington Florida Village Council Approved Cameras For Traffic Lights

Wellington Florida Village Council just approved the installation of cameras on our traffic lights to catch photos of those that run red lights at intersections. Royal Palm Beach already has them installed and much of Palm Beach County also. Wellington Florida luxury homes for sale

The Village of Wellington code enforcement will be fining those that run red lights. The proposed fines are $125 each time you run a red light for the first two times and then go up to $250 for the third time over a three year period.

The cameras will be moved around to where the most infractions are. They are going to contract the installation of the cameras out to companies that specialize in this field.

This new ordinance is set up and approved for public safety not as an income generator the village said. They do think that the revenue brought in by the fines will pay for the cameras, the work involved in working them and levying the fines. It may even generate a profit but that is not the goal.

People who run red lights will think twice about doing so and also will not always know where the cameras may be at all times. This should also lesson the accidents caused by those who run red lights.

Hi Katerina. We have several cities in our area with the red light traffic cameras. Most of the drivers have concluded they are mainly for revenue generation and do nothing or little to improve safety.

We have those here in Georgia. I've heard that people can contest the tickets....since you may have loaned your car to someone and it's not actually YOU driving? But I'm not sure.

I can say this much, when I see them I sure think twice about going through a red! (Not that I would!)

I saw so many people today run reds it was amzaing! Trying to kill someone just to save a minute or two!

Hello Sweetheart! I'm going to email you a personal coaching email. This is my year and I'm wanting to make it BIG. I would love to talk to you about coaching. I've really got a good base....but need an accountabilty coach. It's a hard financial year....but looking for big returns in 2009! Love you so much! Will send personal email! You are so good and right on....comes from goodness!

I think those cameras are a great idea! The first one I ever saw was in Winnepeg Canada,

These cameras are very tricky. At least you will know where the cameras will be set up at and you can be a better driver in those intersections.

Katerina - these are very popular in California (no surprise) and the fines are hefty...hundreds of dollars. Does it work? Well folks where I am don;t seem to run the lightslike the Boston drivers do. They are a different breed - I know, I am one...reformed.
