Photo Enforcement Program
The City of Scottsdale has used photo enforcement technology since 1996 to supplement Police Department efforts to reduce red-light running and speeding. The city today contracts with a vendor to operate photo enforcement cameras at nine fixed locations and in four mobile photo enforcement vans.
Red-light citations are issued only when vehicles enter an intersection after the light has turned red. Speed citations are issued only when a vehicle is moving at 11 mph or faster above the speed limit, or 6 mph or faster over the limit in school zones. At the fixed locations at intersections, cameras photograph both red-light runners and speeders. At mid-block locations, cameras photograph only speeders.
