Automated stop-arm enforcement won't be enabled on New York City school buses this week, nearly three years after the City Council authorized the life-saving cameras.
If and when the automated enforcement begins, violators who blow school bus stop signs will receive $250 for their first violation, $275 for their second.
City stats to back up that assertion are not available due to insufficient reporting by NYPD, with a 2022 investigation indicating that school streets are far more dangerous.
A study by stop-arm camera contractor BusPatrol found that stop-sign violations dropped 42 percent in Suffolk County in the three years after implementing automated enforcement.
