Virginia Nixes Stoplight Cameras

The Virginia Legislature has adjourned without extending the authorization of red light cameras, and as a result, their use cannot continue past July 1st, 2005. Sorry Arlington and Fairfax, no more easy fundraising for you! Besides, there’s a VDOT study that shows they’re causing more accidents anyhow.

Want to stop red light abuse? Make it an expensive ticket with serious points and consequences, not a letter and a $50 fine.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
