     (3)  Appropriating unspecified amounts allocated to each county to establish the photo red light imaging detector systems program.

 

     The Department of Transportation, State Highway Safety Council, Mothers Against Drunk Driving HAWAII, Hawaii Bicycling League, and two concerned individuals supported this measure.
