Are you a serial red-light runner? Here’s what you can expect to pay per ticket in a two-year period: Once : $100 Twice : $250 Thrice: $500
Feature
Those same intersections nabbing runners catch speeders, too. Here’s the breakdown on speeding fines: Up to 10 miles an hour over the limit: $100 11 miles to 15 miles : $150 16 and up : $200 21-25: $250 26-30: $300 31-35: $350 36 miles or more over the limit: $400
Feature
You can get both tickets from the same intersection. If you speed through a red light, both fines apply. Imagine the extreme: If you’re going 76 in a 40 and you run a red for the third time in two years, that’s a $900 ticket. Also, at that point, you should probably make a mental note to take the finicky rocket boosters off your car. These fines are usually higher than the ones you would get if you were pulled over by an officer. The good news is red-light and speeding violations caught on camera are civil offenses and won’t count against your driving record.
