This Act establishes a 2 year pilot program which authorizes any Delaware police agency to initiate camera and video enforcement of speed limits within mile of any work zone and/or school. Similar to the red light cameras currently in use in this State, the vehicle speed monitoring systems authorized under the pilot program will produce recorded images of motor vehicles traveling at least 11 miles per hour above the posted speed limit. Violations shall be subject to a civil assessment not to exceed $50.00, and the procedures for issuing, contesting and paying a notice of violation shall be the same as for traffic light signal violations. Violations are civil in nature and are not subject to points or made a part of a person’s driving record.

An Act To Amend Title 21 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Vehicle Speed Monitoring Systems.

Rep. Gerald Brady [D]
