Fremont's statistics show that between 1995 and 1998, there was a 31 percent increase in traffic accidents involving red-light violations. In addition to the current traffic enforcement measures, the City has decided to utilize the red-light camera system, known as REDFLEXred by Redflex Traffic Systems Inc., to address this issue.
Each system has two cameras, for a total of four images.
Image 1
Shows the vehicle just behind the stop bar with the traffic signal already red.
Image 2
Shows the vehicle has proceeded through the intersection during the red phase (therefore displaying a redlight violation).
Image 3
Shows the driver of the vehicle.
Image 4
Shows a close-up of the rear license plate of the vehicle.
Citations
All violators will receive a $381 citation with a copy of the photographs. A convicted red-light violation will have the penalty of one point on your driving record. Traffic school is an option for those who meet the court requirements, and information can be obtained through the Fremont Superior Court. If you have received a red-light citation at an intersection equipped with digital video(see above), you can schedule an appointment to review it with the Traffic Project Officer.
