Maryland Pushes for $2000 Speed Camera Ticket, Virginia Follows
Lawmakers in Virginia and Maryland plan legislation authorizing speed cameras in highway work zones that would generate $500 and $2000 tickets.
Officials in both Maryland and Virginia are planning to introduce legislation allowing cameras in so-called highway work zones that would issue automated tickets worth $500 in Virginia and $2000 in Maryland. Lawmakers are following the lead of Illinois which last year introduced $1000 freeway speed camera tickets that have generated significant revenue. Oregon will begin its own work zone photo ticketing program next year, and states like Colorado are exploring an expansion of existing speed camera programs to include freeway work zones.
