BACKGROUND: In 1998 SB 1136 (Kopp) authorized the use of automated enforcement systems.

Existing law requires the Department of Transportation to adopt rules and regulations prescribing uniform standards and specifications for all official traffic control devices. APIALYSIS: Under current law, the base fine for running a red light is $100, plus penalty assessments of another $1.70, for a total fine amount of $270. The first 30% of the total tine amount, $81 is allocated to the city or county where the violation occurs. SB 667 (Peace) SB 667 would mandate that each intersection that contains an automated enforcement system be required to have a minimum yellow light change interval based on the posted speed limit at that intersection as established in the Traffic Manua! of the Department of Transportation. The intent of this legislation is to ensure that intersection with automated enforcement systems have an equal standard and motorists are not unfairly targeted by "red light.. traps".
