Reply to comment by megalomike in How real are the red light and speed trap cameras all over town? by DvrthKen

I will say that the one on Pulaski Highway heading Eastbound doesn't work for shit - based on watching two cars run it last night without it flashing once.

yes!! and some cameras have the opposite problem of being overly sensitive. i swear i see the red light cam on Cold Spring at Morgan State flashing at people who are literally not moving (or are coming to a stop just a few inches past the white line).

Coming to a stop past the white line will get you a ticket.

i feel like it’s kinda cheap when it’s just like, someone’s bumper extending a few inches past the white line. i’m not talking about the rubes who stick their car halfway into the intersection before coming to a full stop.

B'more City does not care about your feelings if they can collect $75 from you.

Anytime I had to go in that area I always stay very far behind the line as to not even chance the light triggering.

As far as I know, the red light citations are reviewed and verified by an officer using video replay.

I got a speed one on Pulaski in October so I think it works!

Speed cameras are separate. I'm referring to the red light camera heading eastbound near the 95 on ramp.

Some of them are on timers and only active during school hours, FWIW
