A bill in the Minnesota Senate would authorize the use of cameras to ticket people who run red lights.

SF439, sponsored by Sen. Claire Robling, R-Jordan, would allow cities to rig automatic cameras at problem intersections, the Shakopee Valley News reported. The cameras would shoot pictures of the back of vehicles going through the intersection after the signal turns red.

Police officers would then mail tickets to the vehicle’s owner.

Under Robling’s proposal, cities would be able to keep the fines – currently set at $50 for red-light violators, the newspaper reported. The standard $35 state surcharge for traffic tickets would also be applied.

The bill is in the Senate Crime Prevention and Public Safety Committee.
