6/16/09-Gov. John Baldacci signed into law a bill to prevent the state, or communities within the state, from tapping the use of photo enforcement to nab drivers breaking traffic laws.
While traffic surveillance cameras are not in use in Maine, the new law was a proactive step taken to make sure they don’t start showing up around the state. The ban applies to red-light and speed cameras.
Previously LD1234, the new rule makes an exception for cameras on the Maine Turnpike to help ensure payment at toll booths.
