This dataset is the point geometry that represents Traffic Cameras. This data is used for the planning and management of traffic controls - Assets, Activities, Incidents, as well as the maintenance of Traffic Pole Features of the District of Columbia, Department of Transportation (DDOT). The data set does not include poles supporting only name plate signs and parking enforcement signs. This includes traffic control signs, traffic signals, traffic arms and cameras. Poles must support traffic control devices in order to be collected. All traffic poles, pavement markings, traffic cabinets and cameras located within 10 meters of curb face intersections are collected. The dataset contains location and attributes of traffic controls located at each intersection in the District of Columbia.

'The only solution we get is automated enforcement,' Reed says. 'And it's financially harmful to Black and brown people.'įor decades, Reed says, Chicago has failed to fix some of the most dangerous intersections, or to redesign roads to discourage speeding and encourage biking or public transportation. 'Automated enforcement has become a significant revenue driver for the city,' said Olatunji Oboi Reed, who runs a nonprofit in Chicago called Equiticity. Studies in Washington, D.C., and Chicago show that tickets from automated enforcement are paid disproportionately by people of color. Safety advocates have touted automated enforcement as a neutral alternative to police stops, which can be potentially biased by race, and as a way to reduce unnecessary interactions between police and communities of color.īut in practice, that hasn't always been the case. Over A Single Speed Camera They Call 'Unconstitutional'

'For lack of a better term, it sucks to get a ticket. 'Automated enforcement works,' Adkins said. Still, they've earned the endorsement of prominent safety advocates, including Jonathan Adkins, the CEO of the Governors Highway Safety Association. But critics say speed cameras can be a financial burden on those who are least able to pay. Traffic fatalities have risen sharply over the past decade, and safety advocates around the country are desperately searching for anything that will get drivers to slow down. New laws in California and Pennsylvania will allow them in major cities where they've long been blocked. Richmond joins a growing list of cities turning to speed cameras. But that's the option that we're left with at this point.' Advocates say speeding tickets change behavior It would not be school zone speed enforcement cameras. 'If I could make a quick fix tomorrow, it would not be any type of speed enforcement. 'A lot of us feel desperate' to make streets safer, FitzPatrick said.
