When carefully implemented, automated enforcement programs reduce speeds & save lives. AAA has joined @IIHS_autosafety@SafeRoadsNow@NSCsafety & @GHSAHQ to create a checklist for communities establishing or expanding automated enforcement.
Automated enforcement should be viewed as one tool among many that can be used to make roads and intersections safer. Read more and view the full checklist here: https://t.co/xMB7J3CW6K 13/13
Safety and transparency should guide all decisions about camera programs. If the cameras are doing their jobs, communities should expect revenue to decline over time as fewer drivers violate speed limits or run red lights. 12/
The new checklist aims to address some common concerns about cameras. Public support for the programs can erode when they are poorly run or when people believe their purpose is to generate revenue rather than to prevent crashes. 11/
What about speed cameras? IIHS studies of cameras on residential roads in Maryland, on a high-speed roadway in Arizona and on city streets in D.C. found that the proportion of drivers exceeding speed limits by more than 10 mph declined by 70, 88 and 82% respectively. 8/
Do RLC cameras work? Institute studies in Oxnard, California, and Fairfax, Virginia, reported reductions in red light violation rates of about 40% after the introduction of red light cameras. https://t.co/RE9eAQmaN8 7/
“Research by IIHS and others has shown consistently that automated enforcement curbs dangerous driving behaviors and reduces crashes,” says IIHS President David Harkey. 1/
