Speed Cameras Coming to Montgomery County

New Law Takes Effect In 30 Days

Under a measure that won final approval Wednesday in the 
Maryland General Assembly, Montgomery County will become 
the first jurisdiction in the state to use automated speed 
cameras in residential neighborhoods and near its schools.

Calling the legislation an unnecessary government intrusion, 
Gov. Robert Ehrlich had vetoed a bill to allow the use of 
the cameras.

But both the State Senate and House of Delegates voted 
to override Ehrlich's veto, and its passage was celebrated 
by Democratic lawmakers in Montgomery County as a way to 
make roads safer.

Under the new law, which takes effect in 30 days, drivers 
caught going 10 mph or more above the speed limit could
be fined as much as $40.

The automated cameras are already in use in the District 
and a handful of other states.
