Hot off the presses! New report from NYCDOT on speed camera program results.APCSC is part of the committee working on NJ Speed Camera legislation."Automated enforcement continues to demonstrate its objectivity and effectiveness in calming our streets and reducing dangerous speeding," said Corey Hannigan, active transportation program manager at Tri-State Transportation Campaign.
