New York City Red Light Camera Program 2014 Report
In 1988, the New York State Legislature passed a law to allow cities with a population of one million or more to establish a demonstration program to install traffic-control signal photo violation-monitoring systems (red light cameras), which captures images of vehicles going through red light signals at traffic intersections. New York City used this authorization to launch the nation's first program in 1994. The success of red light cameras in enhancing public safety throughout the five boroughs has led to the City's continued interest in additional expansion. Further increasing the total number of red light cameras the City is allowed to use will make this public safety tool even more effective.
