State Senator Wendy Rogers, R-LD7, has introduced plans to ban photo enforcement statewide in Arizona, arguing that it infringes on drivers’ freedom and is not as effective at promoting safety as claimed. Rogers has proposed a traditional bill that is likely to be vetoed by the governor, as well as a resolution that would take the issue directly to voters in a future election. The resolution has already passed the Senate and is on track for a vote in the House.
Photo radar enforcement has been a contentious issue in Arizona, with some drivers supporting it as a way to promote safety and deter speeding, while others argue that it is unconstitutional and does not effectively change driver behavior. The technology has been implemented in cities like Paradise Valley, Avondale, and soon Phoenix and Tempe. Supporters of the ban believe that it is necessary to give drivers more control over their own actions on the road. The debate over photo radar enforcement continues, with both sides expressing strong opinions on the matter.
