Red light cameras get the green light in League City

Red light cameras will start going up beginning Tuesday. Redflex Traffic Systems will begin installing cameras to capture drivers who run red lights at: Interstate 45 and FM 518, which has the highest rate of red light runners in the city.

Yay for extorting money from the population!!! I've lived here two years and never seen a single accident at 518 and 45, I cry foul!!!!

I cry BS, Brandon!
I live in Dickinson.

I have seen 4 at that intersection in the last 2 years... that is, 4 are just what *I* have personally seen

Putting red light cameras up isn't a problem for those of us following the law.

I think they are putting them in the wrong places. In 2007 I was hit by a truck that was hit by a car that ran a red light at 2094 and s compass rose. and now that 518 has some extra lights between the high school and hyde elementary, i see people running red lights going down lousiana, going into the gates, and meadow bend. i think they should have red light cams there too and 2094 and s compass rose.

League City just needs a way to pay for those fancy new cruisers. This camera is a waste. Why that light is even there is the bigger question. We were fine without it.

Not sure why this site thinks I'm in Pasadena - I'm in League City.

Just make sure you stop before the crosswalk, then again where you can see the traffic.

Awesome!!! I love the idea of giving up our fourth amendment. You do realize that if they can see inside our vehicles that is basically what we’re doing.
