San Francisco's speed cameras, operational for 60 days, will start issuing citations ranging from $50 to $500 based on severity. The cameras are expected to save lives and address the city's severe speeding issues. With 56 cameras in 33 locations, the city has already witnessed a 63% decrease in speeding since the grace period began. Advocates believe more cameras will be necessary to further deter speeding, alongside better street design to discourage fast driving.
San Francisco will be the first city in California to implement speed camera technology, with 56 cameras in 33 locations now operational.
The city has seen a 63% decrease in speeding over 13 weeks since issuing warnings, indicating the effectiveness of the technology.
The citation costs for speeding will range from $50 to $500, depending on income and how far above the speed limit a driver is.
