(Statewide) – Speed cameras will be installed in some Indiana work zones by mid-2024 under new state law.
Gov. Eric Holcomb has signed House Enrolled Act 1015 into law. The legislation creates a pilot program to allow speed cameras in up to four Indiana work zones at a time.
INDOT officials hope to have some of those cameras in place by late this summer but will have the full complement of cameras in place by next year.
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, speed cameras are currently up and running in 18 states and the District of Columbia.
The locations for Indiana’s speed cameras will be chosen by INDOT.
The cameras will take pictures of license plates on cars or trucks exceeding the speed limit by at least 11 miles per hour.
A ticket would then be mailed to the address on the vehicle registration.
For the first violation, drivers will receive a warning. The second offense results in a $75 fine, and additional violations will each cost $150.
