Red Light Camera Violator of the Week: Red Light Rush

A sports car speeds through the Chestnut Street and Fort Harrison Avenue intersection becoming the latest Red Light Camera Violator of the Week.

The violation comes with a $158 fine.

Clearwater Police posted the video on its Facebook page April 3 and shared this comment regarding the citation process:

Red light violators are issued a notice of violation which is a civil infraction. If an initial notice of violation is not paid, it becomes a uniformed traffic citation and failing to satisfy that uniformed traffic citation would result in a suspension of the violator's drivers license for failure to pay a traffic fine. Driving with a suspended license in some circumstances could potentially result in arrest.
