COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. - The Collier County Board of Commissioners gave the vendor, American Traffic Solutions, one month to take the equipment down.
19 cameras were installed in 2008 at busy intersections. The contract with American Traffic Solutions was supposed to last ten years. But in December, the Board voted to bring the cameras down. Earlier this month, Commissioner Donna Fiala tried one last time to keep the cameras, but her proposal was denied. More than 40,000 citations were given out. The county says they will look at the timing and legnth of yellow lights to prevent future accidents.
