Traffic cameras were done away with in CA by a judge who ruled, wisely, that cameras cannot testify in court. People are not allowed to hire experts to examine the devices (if only someone would rule on electronic vote tabulation machines).

But this story is about toll roads, not traffic.

SOP on this website is to post comments without reading the article.

It looks like a sizable portion of the folks posting here didn't even read the HEADLINE.

“According to FindLaw, in 2011, the Los Angeles County Superior Court ruled that using traffic camera photos as evidence is unenforceable because there is no witness to testify against the driver. However, as of November 2023, some urban areas will again use speed cameras starting in 2024.”

There are still lots of traffic “Red Light” cameras in Sacramento.

I tried to challenge in traffic court once, by requesting the “person” who reported my “violation” to testify....some remote worker in Arizona....court just sent me a letter saying “No”. I appealed the violation asking for a jury trial with testimony from the same person, the court just sent me a copy of the backside of my appeal, with a box checked that said....”Appeal Denied.”.
