In just over a month, the red light cameras in Hillsborough County have been responsible for 1,100 citations for running red lights. Those citations have meant over $100,000 to the city’s coffers. As the money rolls in the debate continues on as to whether the cameras make Tampa’s streets safer or just make money.
Cpl. Darrin Barlow told My Fox Tampa Bay’s April Kellogg that the people who run red lights are endangering motorists but some of those very motorists disagree. Kellogg spoke to Tampa citizens who have witnessed increased danger on the roads due to the way people drive because of the red light cameras. That was a major concern for many when the cameras were first being discussed.
