The city has seen a dramatic reduction in speeding since its speed cameras were turned on 24/7, with violations dropping 27% since the switch was flipped in August, the Adams administration revealed on Wednesday.
in June. In their first month of permanent operation, the cameras logged 755,000 leadfoots traveling at least 11 miles per hour above the speed limit, dropping precipitously to 661,000 in September and 586,000 in October.
“We knew these changes wouldn’t happen overnight, but, every day, we continue to dam the many rivers that feed the sea of violence in our city with investments in both intervention and prevention,” Hizzoner said in a statement. “We’ll continue to engage New Yorkers at every level on the issue of public safety and make sure 2023 is even safer.”
A DOT “heat map” from the pre-24/7 camera days shows a dramatic increase in speeding in the hours the cameras couldn’t issue automatic tickets. “While one fatality is one too many, we can be grateful that fatalities have declined overall and that we are defying national trends with the near-lowest levels of pedestrian fatalities in the city’s history,” said Rodriguez in a statement. “This is, at least in part, due to our success in securing 24/7 speed camera operation.”
