The launching of the Safe Speed automated enforcement program adds Montgomery County to a growing list of communities worldwide that use automated speed enforcement to reduce traffic crashes and save lives. The program is the first in Maryland to enforce speed limits of 35 mph or less in residential areas and school zones. Speed cameras provide police with one more tool to protect pedestrians and other motorists by targeting aggressive driving behaviors.

"The safety of the people who live and work in Montgomery County is always our top priority. Automated speed enforcement will help our County enforce the traffic laws and combat and correct the aggressive driving behavior of those who choose to speed. Our goal is to save lives, and speed cameras will give us another resource that will complement our existing enforcement measures."
