Florida Red Light Cameras - Attorney Investigates - Scientific Report
Florida Red Light Camera Investigation Continues by a Board Certified Criminal Trial Lawyer - Scientists who have reviewed the safety of Florida Red Light Cameras concluded, "comprehensive studies conclude cameras actually increase crashes and injuries, provid[ing] a safety argument not to install them. Presently, Florida statutes do not permit red light camera evidence to be used as the sole basis for ticketing drivers for violating the law." Phd's at the University of South Florida have spoken. The complete study is available for free here.
Here are the facts:
"Major evaluations were conducted in Greensboro, North Carolina; Virginia; and the Canadian province of Ontario. The studies used multiple years of before-and-after data at camera intersections and comparison (no camera) intersections resulting in consistent findings. Camera intersections were associated with a significant increase in crashes. Increased rear-end crashes were a particular problem and may occur as drivers attempt to stop abruptly in order to avoid a ticket."
If the science proves they are dangerous, then the question then becomes if not for safety, then why are Florida drivers being forced to pay millions in fines? Remember your public officials who have placed this hidden tax on Florida's drivers, when you go to the ballot box. Florida Traffic Camera Attorney recently investigated a central Florida neighborhood with nearly 80 traffic cameras in one short stretch of road. One citizen reports that almost everyone on their street has received a red light camera citation within months of the cameras' installation.
