Miami Beach just stopped ticketing most right-turns-on-red. The cameras are still on.
Small but real win for proportionality: the Miami Beach City Commission voted 5-2 in June to stop issuing camera citations for right-turn-on-red at nine of the city's ten camera-enforced intersections. (The exception: 17th & Alton, where the rolling right apparently remains a menace worth $158.)
Here's the part that matters if you drive the Beach:
- Straight-through red-light running is still enforced at all ten intersections. The cameras didn't come down. They just got slightly less trigger-happy.
- Rolling rights were the classic camera-ticket complaint — a maneuver most cops wouldn't stop you for, ticketed by mail at $158 because a machine can't exercise judgment.
Our take
This is what a program looks like when someone actually weighs safety against gotcha. Blowing through a red at 45? Ticket it, obviously — that's the crash that kills people. A 4-mph creep around a right on an empty morning? That was never about safety, and Miami Beach just admitted it. More of this, please.
All ten Miami Beach cameras stay live in Beepr — a camera that can still ticket straight-through traffic is a camera worth a beep. See every enforced intersection on our Miami-Dade camera page.
