Red Light Camera Violations

When a vehicle runs a red traffic light, cameras record the vehicle and its license plate, and then Law enforcement officials review the evidence and decide whether a citation is warranted. If they decide the vehicle ran the red light, Notices of Warning or Violation are mailed to the vehicle's registered owner. The Clerk does not receive these violations until they have been converted into a traffic citation/ticket after 60 days. Learn more about how to pay for those violations before they become traffic citations/tickets on your driving record.
