Richmond to Install Red-Light Cameras
Posted on Apr 22, 2010
According to the Richmond Times Dispatch, the city of Richmond will begin installing digital cameras at twenty intersections in order to catch drivers who run red lights. If caught running a red light, a driver will be forced to pay a $50 civil penalty; driving records and insurance rates will not be affected because it is not a criminal charge. The Mayor's office has said that the only goal of this program is to reduce the amount of people who run red lights, but many aren't convinced. People who oppose photo-enforcement programs cite privacy as a major concern. The executive director of the ACLU of Virginia has encouraged citizens to question whether the main goal of the program is to make money, since photo enforcement violations have no effect on driving records and therefore may not improve safety, and ask themselves whether or not they are willing to give up their privacy.
