On July 1, 2010 Florida becomes the tenth state to add state-wide red light cameras to its roster of law enforcement tools. Sixteen other states allow the cameras in certain areas. The fine in Florida is $158 per offense, no traffic points. Click on the link to see  state-by-state fines.

The cities say it is a way to save lives but the money they receive can help replenish town coffers that have seen revenue slip away due to the depreciating property values.

It is yet to be seen if drivers slamming on the brakes at camera intersections will cause more accidents than they prevent.
