5/5/08-A bill has died that sought to give drivers an earlier heads up about intersections with red-light cameras posted.
Sponsored by Sen. Pamela Gorman, R-Anthem, SB1505 would have required that warning signs be placed 600 feet in front of photo-red systems.
State law now mandates warning signs posted at least 300 feet ahead.
Signed statements from law enforcement officers also would have been included to verify that two such warning signs were in place at the time of the violation.
