Speed Traps Coming

CALIFORNIA

Flanked by City Council Pro Tem Wendy Greuel and Councilman Richard Alarcon, Krekorian presented AB766, the Safe Streets Bill, which would provide local communities greater control over the establishment of speed limits.

California's current "Speed Trap" law requires local authorities using radar/laser for speed limit enforcement to set the speed limits on those streets using the 85% rule, meaning that a speed zone survey is taken and the speed limit is set so that 85% of the motorists are considered to be driving legally.

Greuel called the "Speed Trap" law a thing of the past that "may have made sense decades ago" but that it now left the City with two bad choices, raise speed limits or stop using radar/laser for speed limit enforcement.

Alarcon put it simply saying "People drive too fast!"
