This puts the vehicle owner in the enforcement business if it was not them driving the vehicle at the time of the violation. Fines are issued to the vehicle owner, not the motorist.I do not want to see any time or effort taken away from dealing with these traffic problems. I am sure they happen but complaints and issues with speeding through our neighborhoods and stop sign violations far outweigh any complaints I have heard about red light violations. In the 5+ years I have been a Commissioner, I have never been aware of a systemic problem with red light violations and/or accidents occurring from motorists running red lights (a solution looking for a problem).No money, except costs, are sent directly to Abington Township. Money remaining after APD costs and Red Light Camera vendor fee will be transferred to PennDOT to be held in a fund that will issue Traffic Enforcement Grants to municipalities throughout the state. APD will be reimbursed for any cost incurred by review of the images and court apperances from the fines paid.

Violations will not issue points to you driving record.

Violations will be a fine of $100 and will be issued to the vehicle owner, not the operator.

Once approved by APD a violation will be issued.

Images of vehicles that are perceived to be in violation of traveling through a red light will be transferred to the Abington Police Department for final review.

They will only take pictures of the rear of the car.

Cameras will record vehicle speed and position at the beginning of the yellow and the beginning of the red light.

Red light camera vendor will assume all cost and receive a given fee from the installation which will come from the fines issued.

Cameras and related systems will be installed at no cost to the township.Here are some specifics about the proposed program: These interesection were selected because they meet certain thresholds dictated by the state legislation that allows for Red Light Camera installation.
