Protecting Lives Through Safer Intersections
The City of Miami Springs is committed to improving roadway safety through its Red-Light Camera Enforcement & Intersection Safety Program. Since its implementation on January 9, 2012, the program has helped reduce dangerous red-light violations and promote safer driving behaviors throughout our community.
Red-light running is one of the leading causes of serious intersection crashes. By encouraging drivers to obey traffic signals, this program helps protect motorists, pedestrians, cyclists, and everyone who travels through our city.
How the Program Works
Red-light cameras operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at designated intersections throughout Miami Springs. The cameras automatically record video and capture images of vehicles that enter an intersection after the traffic signal has turned red.
Every potential violation is carefully reviewed and approved by Miami Springs Police Department personnel before a citation is issued. The program is administered in partnership with Verra Mobility, ensuring that each violation receives an independent review before enforcement action is taken.
The civil penalty for a red-light camera violation is $158.

Promoting Safer Roads
Warning signs are posted in advance of every camera-equipped intersection to notify motorists of photo enforcement. The goal of this program is not simply to issue citations, but to change driver behavior, reduce crashes, and make Miami Springs' intersections safer for everyone.
Traffic safety programs like this have demonstrated success in communities throughout Florida and across the nation by reducing red-light violations and preventing serious crashes. Miami Springs is proud to be among the hundreds of communities utilizing this proven technology to help save lives.
