Red Light Camera Update ~ Westchester

10:56 AM PDT on August 10, 2007

Some updated information on the red light camera issue we've been discussing here for some time. The latest LAPD blog updates us on the following:

    • The new red-light cams double as spy-cams. Unlike older models, the new Nestor Traffic Systems cameras can be turned on "during emergencies" to give live images of the scene.
    • There are currently 23 red light cameras in operation in the City of Los Angeles
    • The newest activated system is in West Los Angeles near LAX at the intersection of Manchester and Airport
    • The new system is a video system and can grab 30 still frames per second, allowing for facial ID of the driver

As always, you can see maps and get more information on the cameras at photoenforced.com, which also has them on a map for Los Angeles.
