Here's why SF's new speed cameras are still not fully operational after 2 months since installation
Briefly

In 2023, California's AB 645 allowed six cities, including San Francisco, to pilot speed cameras. By 2025, only 18 out of 33 cameras were operational, issuing warnings rather than tickets to speeding drivers. San Francisco Supervisor Danny Sauter voiced frustration over delays in activation, attributed primarily to ongoing challenges with PG&E's power supply. Although the cameras are already installed, the city seeks solutions through hearings and possible legislation to expedite their functionality and address the lack of tickets.
Instead of tickets, drivers going 11 miles or more above the speed limit are getting a "courtesy warning notice," with no penalties and no response needed.
Danny Sauter, San Francisco Supervisor, expressed frustration at the delays caused by issues with PG&E hooking up the speed cameras to the power supply.
