Event Description/Abstract
As part of the Minnesota DOT’s Toward Zero Deaths program, a device was created to enable the State Patrol officers to witness red light violations from downstream positions to make enforcement safer. Besides live video, the system also records still frames of the violations to be used as evidence and performance metrics that help target enforcement scheduling and provide countermeasure evaluations. Minnesota does not allow automated enforcement.
