Summary
Minnesota’s DOT is testing speed cameras in two construction zones this month to see if tech can keep drivers safer—not to issue tickets yet. If you’re caught speeding more than 10 mph over the limit, you’ll get a warning letter. Cameras are going up on I-35W in Burnsville and Highway 65 between Cambridge and Braham, with clear signage so you know you’re in a monitored zone. The push comes after over 11,000 crashes and 22 deaths in work zones over five years—workers’ safety is literally on the line. Data from this pilot will guide future decisions, and actual fines aren’t expected this summer. Cameras operate independently of police, so you could still get pulled over.
