Tampa Revises School Zone Speed Cameras
Description
Tampa’s City Council is revamping its school zone speed camera strategy after a study revealed drivers routinely speeding in 18 key zones — with hundreds to thousands of tickets issued daily. The plan: keep 6 existing cameras, scrap 6, and install 12 new ones for a total of 18 zones, targeting the most dangerous spots to protect kids. While some council members questioned relying solely on automated enforcement over police presence, assurances from camera provider RedSpeed — that no data will be shared with systems like Flock — helped sway opinions. The proposal passed on first reading with only one dissenting vote and will be finalized on July 16th, aiming to make school zones safer by focusing enforcement where it’s needed most.
