St Pete Red Light Camera Flier

Below is the flier that the City of St Petersburg released and mailed out to all residents with city water service in September 2011. This flier was produced with the help of the private Arizona-based red light camera company American Traffic Solutions, that the city hired to outsource red light violation law enforcement to in the city. Because of all of the half-truths and false information that is in this flier, we decided that we needed to present another point of view with some facts that they chose to leave out. Available for download in hi-resolution file formats at the bottom of the page.

ATS/St Pete "Claim":  During the past three years, St. Petersburg experienced 21 fatal crashes at intersections with traffic lights.  13 of these fatalities or 6 percent were directly attributed to red-light running.

Facts after www.StPeteCameras.org FOUND out the TRUTH:  None of the red light running fatalities that have happened in the last 3 years have been at the intersections chosen for red light cameras.  The intersecion of MLK and 22nd Ave N. has seen 5 red light running fatalities, but was not chosen for a red light camera.

Ban the Cams note:  THESE INTERSECTIONS WERE PICKED MORE FOR FINANCIAL REASONS (number of cars for chruning) than Safety ones.
