Summary

Fresno is launching a three-year pilot program to install red-light cameras at high-risk intersections, aiming to slash traffic fatalities by deterring dangerous driving—not just handing out tickets, but changing behavior. The city’s Department of Public Works, with police support, will target the worst spots first, while ensuring civil penalties, no license points, and fines paid by vehicle owners. Inspired by tragic loss and proven safety tech, this isn’t Fresno’s first rodeo with cameras—but with new safeguards, it’s a bold step toward zero traffic deaths.
