Be careful drivers! A new camera is keeping a watchful eye near a Delaware park and will send you a ticket in the mail for driving too fast.For any drivers passing through Newark, be aware! A new camera is on the prowl and will send speeding drivers tickets in the mail.
NBC10 Delaware Bureau reporter Tim Furlong reports.The camera looks like a little old-fashioned robot and is right near Hillside Park where drivers tend to go too quickly through the area.After signs encouraging people to drive slowly didn't do the trick, leaders in Newark worked with state lawmakers on a bill that lets municipalities use speed cameras.If the camera sees you go 11 miles per hour or more over the 25 m.p.h. limit in the first 30 days, you will get a warning in the mail. After that period you’ll get a fine: 11 or more over the limit, it’s a $31 fine but the faster you go the more you’ll have to pay. Fines could reach up to $175.The fines collected will cover the cost to operate the system and then any more money raised over that amount will be sent to Delaware's Office of Highway Safety to be used on programs that benefit the whole state. Next, the camera will spend time at 15 other spots around the city where people tend to drive too fast. DelDOT has been using these cameras in major Interstate 95 construction zones and have found they really do cut down on speed and crashes.
