| Subject: Illinois Serfs Have Paid $1 Billion In Red Light Camera Tickets In The Last 10 Years Mon Oct 14, 2019 10:05 pm | |
| Illinois drivers have forked over an astounding $1 billion in red light camera fines in the past 10 years, according to a new study, and now some lawmakers in Springfield are reviving a push to ban red light cameras. At least two state representatives have introduced proposed legislation to eliminate red light cameras in Illinois, although both proposals remain in the infancy stages. A ban would leave Chicago and many suburbs with significant budget holes. For example, in west suburban Oakbrook Terrace, a peek at finances shows a 2000% increase in fines collected the year red light cameras were installed at the intersection of Route 83 and 22nd Street.
