D.C. metro-area drivers be advised: D.C. is planning to add hundreds more traffic cameras to the city’s streets.
Muriel BowserPart of the urgency in installing the cameras relates to the city’s finances. With federal pandemic largesse ending, D.C. faces a $1.7 billion shortfall between the budget and city revenues, which have fallen by more than $390 million.
In the new budget, the $7.4 million already allocated for installing the 342 new cameras is preserved, and another $13.3 million is earmarked for supporting the increased ticketing and adjudication duties for the D.C. Department of Motor Vehicles.Some wondered if that projection was accurate, given that Maryland and Virginia drivers ticketed in D.C. have been known to skip paying the fines.
