Implementation of automated enforcement programs for traffic signals is increasing in the United States. Fines assessed by the programs, which are based on photographs or videos captured automatically when a vehicle enters the intersection after the signal has changed to red, range from $50 to $271 dollars. The cameras used in the systems cost about $50,000 to $60,000, with installation, including detectors, equipment cabinet, and mounting pole, adding approximately an additional $25,000. Public opinion surveys reported in the literature indicate significant public support for the programs. This report makes several recommendations for further research into the impacts of red light camera systems.
