Testimonials

Redflex's goal is to improve traffic safety in communities through the deployment of road safety camera technology. Clients ranging in size from cities like Chicago to smaller U.S. towns routinely share anecdotes and statistics about how Redflex cameras have helped make their communities safer.

"I'm convinced that the photo technology is the No. 1 reason for the reduction of traffic accidents."

-Dan Shatz, former Chief of Police, Prescott Valley Police Department

"Louisiana has some of the highest automobile rates in the country because of our poor driving habits. If this program does anything to change that, hallelujah."

-Conrad Comeaux, Lafayette Parish assessor, about how he changed his driving behavior after receiving an automated speeding violation notice in Lafayette, La. (The Lafayette Daily Advertiser, "Red-light camera program gets temporary funding," April 9). 

"In my opinion, people that blow red lights do a lot more injuries and damage to vehicles and people than your speeders, typically. If you get broadsided at a busy intersection, you're going to get hurt."

-Mickey Manry, program administrator for Redwood City (Calif.) Police Department, about the city's installation of its first REDFLEXred® cameras this spring. (San Mateo Daily News, "Catching red light violators," Feb. 17)                                    

"The (mobile red vehicle) system offers us a great deal of flexibility in addressing problem areas at specific times. We feel that it will be a useful and effective tool in improving traffic safety."

- Sgt. Eric Hansen, Grand Prairie (Texas) Police Department, about the city's use of REDFLEXred® mobile units.

"I hear a lot of people say they're more aware of their speed when they're driving, and that's the goal of this program."

-Joey Durel, Lafayette, La. city-parish president, about the SafeSpeed mobile vans program through which more than 4,000 drivers were cited in less than three months. ("Cameras changing behavior," The Lafayette Daily Advertiser, Dec. 21) "The problem is a lot worse than I can address with the officers I have now."
