Virtual Public Hearing for Hawaii Admin. Rule 19-151 “Photo Red Light Imaging Detector System”

by Thunda

A red light camera is a type of traffic enforcement camera that photographs a vehicle that has entered an intersection after the traffic signal controlling the intersection has turned red. By automatically photographing vehicles that run red lights, the photo is evidence that assists authorities in their enforcement of traffic laws. Generally, the camera is triggered when a vehicle enters the intersection (passes the stop bar) after the traffic signal has turned red.

Typically, a law enforcement official will review the photographic evidence and determine whether a violation occurred. A citation is then usually mailed to the owner of the vehicle found to be in violation of the law.

The Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) is holding a virtual public hearing on Thursday, June 17, 2021, regarding proposed Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR) 19-151, entitled “Photo Red Light Imaging Detector System.” The proposed rules are intended to provide guidance to ensure proper implementation of the new law.
