How does the photo enforcement system work?
Vehicles which enter an intersection after a red light signal set off system sensors and cameras document the violation. Pictures of the driver and the vehicle license plate are taken and a 12-second video of the violation is recorded. A CSPD officer reviews all violations. Using ATS’ violation processing application, the officer will watch the video of a vehicle running the red light and will view the photos showing the light illuminated red both before and after the vehicle enters the intersection. If that officer determines the vehicle ran the red light, the officer verifies that the license plate matches the vehicle and all information is correct before issuing the citation.
