Citrus County Weighs School Zone Cameras

Citrus County Weighs School Zone Cameras

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

Citrus County commissioners are weighing a bold move: installing speed cameras in school zones to catch drivers speeding near kids. Legal since Florida’s new law, the plan could net $100 tickets for those going over the limit by 10 mph — a safety measure aimed at protecting students. But it’s not without controversy; similar programs in Manatee County and Palm Bay faced backlash over perceived unfairness. Before cameras go up, the county must pass a law, hold public meetings, choose a vendor, run awareness campaigns, and give drivers 30 days’ notice — all before any tickets are issued. No final decision yet, as officials navigate the delicate balance between safety and fairness on the road.
