Virginia Committee Turns Down Cameras AgainA Virginia legislative committee voted a second time to turn down camera enforcement.
Virginia's House Militia, Police and Public Safety Committee for a second time turned down legislation aimed at saving the state's red light camera programs.
Seven cities will be forced to shut down their photo enforcement programs unless the legislature acts to save the program. Today's action makes that even more unlikely.
