The City of Phoenix Photo Safety Program began issuing citations on March 25 to drivers who exceed posted speed limits. This follows a 30-day warning period, during which time the nine corridor Photo Safety Cameras captured more than 70,000 events of drivers exceeding posted speed limits.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the warning period of the Photo Safety Program, we saw an alarming number of drivers exceeding safe speeds,\u201d said Briiana Velez, Street Transportation Director. \u201cThis is exactly why Photo Safety Cameras are an important tool for the City of Phoenix in improving roadway safety. We\u2019re hopeful that as we move into the next phase, everyone who uses Phoenix streets will slow down and drive the posted speed limit.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSpeed continues to be one of the most common factors in severe and fatal collisions,\u201d said Phoenix Police Commander Nicholas Diponzio. \u201cThe high number of events recorded during the warning period underscores how critical this program is. Our goal is simple, help everyone who lives, works, and visits Phoenix reach their destination safely.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

About the Photo Safety Program<\/p>\n

The Photo Safety Program operates on a cost\u2011recovery model, generating zero revenue for the City of Phoenix. Should there be net funds, they will be reinvested into projects and strategies identified in the City\u2019s Vision Zero Road Safety Action Plan.\n<\/p>\n

A total of 17 Photo Safety Cameras have been deployed across Phoenix. The program\u2019s goals are reducing dangerous driving behaviors, supplementing enforcement efforts by Phoenix Police and advancing the City\u2019s Vision Zero commitment to eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries.\n<\/p>\n

Nine corridor cameras are located in areas with a history of speed\u2011related crashes, moving approximately every six months. Eight additional cameras will rotate weekly through 15\u2011mph school zones during the school year.
