Des Moines, Iowa — A bill recently signed into law by the governor establishes state oversight of speed cameras that generate tickets for cities and counties. Department of Transportation director, Scott Marler says the law covers new requests for speed cameras and the ones that are already in place.
Marler says the DOT is required to have the reviews of the existing cameras done by October 1st.
The law also says fines from traffic camera tickets must be used on law enforcement expenses. Marler made his comments during the recent state Transportation Commission meeting.
