These Speed Cameras Caught 31,000 Drivers And They’re Just Getting Warmed Up

  • SF’s new fixed cameras issued 31,000 speeding warnings in just one month.
  • A total of 33 cameras will be up and running when the rollout is complete.
  • Starting in August, drivers will be fined for going 11 mph or more over the limit.

San Francisco’s latest traffic experiment is anything but subtle, and it’s already making an impact. In March, over a dozen fixed-speed cameras in locations across San Francisco were switched on, and the impacts are already being felt.

In April alone, these new cameras flagged 31,000 drivers for breaking the speed limits. While the cameras have sparked some frustration among locals, they’re still in warning mode for now. But once the citations start rolling in, expect the volume on the public debate to rise.
