“On Tuesday, city leaders in Corona, California and Red Bank, Tennessee will vote to send their automated ticketing machine vendors packing. Just two years ago, American Traffic Solutions (ATS) won a major contract extension in Red Bank as the city rushed to avoid the possibility that the state legislature could impose limitations on automated ticketing. Corona has already notified its vendor, Redflex Traffic Systems of Australia, that it is no longer interested in having red light cameras; it is hard for municipal leaders to justify slapping vehicle owners with a $500 citation, especially as the city’s net share of that amount is a little over $100.”
