1. How red light cameras work

WE DO NOT CONDONE NOR ENCOURAGE RUNNING RED LIGHTS. DO NOT BUY OUR PRODUCTS IF YOU INTEND TO USE THEM ILLEGALLY. RUNNING RED LIGHTS IS CARELESS AND DANGEROUS. PLEASE PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS.

Photo Enforced SignRed Light cameras perform round-the-clock monitoring of intersections by photographing vehicles as they enter an intersection after the light has turned red. The system consists of fixed and movable components. A fixed pole and cabinet are permanently installed at an intersection. They are accompanied by the portable portion of the system, which comprises about 80 percent of its total cost and typically includes a Computer High-speed camera, a Flash Digital loop signal processor, and an optional high-speed memory card. In an era of restricted budgets and manpower, the benefits of automated violation detection and capture are compelling. By helping to ensure that traffic laws are enforced in the absence of police patrol, the system promotes public safety, helps to prevent dangerous high-speed pursuits, and enables officers to focus on other law enforcement priorities. Another example of sin tax revenue, the RED Light Camera Turnkey system is funded by traffic violators, making it an efficient and reliable method for generating public revenue 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

After a successful testing period during which motorists were issued warnings of their moving violations, the City of Oxnard, CA began issuing citations for red light violations caught on camera on July 1, 1997. Formerly known as U.S. Public Technologies, Inc., the Lockheed-Martin Information Management Systems - Photo Enforcement Group (LMIMS-PEG) installed photo red light enforcement cameras at key intersections throughout Oxnard. Similar photo systems have been in use in the U.S. since 1968, and more than 8,000 exist worldwide. The system works by photographing a vehicle's driver and its front license plate as it crosses the limit line after the light has turned red. Since their installment, these cameras have snapped pictures of suspected car thieves driving stolen vehicles and documented serious collisions on digital film.

Caught in the Act.This is a typical digital photograph of a car caught on the LMIMS-PEG Photo Red System. The system takes two photos of offending drivers: one near the limit line and another about 0.5 seconds later. LMIMS-PEG then deciphers the vehicle's front license plate number and mails the registered owner of the car a citation along with copies of both photos. The images on this page have been blurred to protect the guilty party; however this system is known to capture crystal-clear photos of drivers and plate numbers, day or night. After receiving their citation, registered owners can schedule an appointment with the Oxnard P.D. Traffic Unit to view the actual photos. And in cases where someone other than the owner was driving, owners are told to bring the driver with them to the station for a photo comparison.
Photo Red Data Block On every photograph is a "Camera Data Block." This block (enlarged by the above image) provides critical information about the violation. This picture was taken on July 7, 1997 at 5:50 pm. It was the eighth photo citation of the day at this intersection and the second of two photos taken of this car, the first of which was exposed 0.5 seconds prior to this shot. At the time this photo was taken, the light had been red for 0.9 seconds, and the car was traveling at 58 miles per hour.
