The Ticket In The Mail
Transp. Code 707.020 — a local authority may not operate a red light camera system
Prohibited. Notwithstanding any other law, a local authority may not implement or operate a photographic traffic signal enforcement system on a highway or street under its jurisdiction.
Who enforces it. The attorney general enforces the prohibition.
Speed cameras, school bus and school zone cameras, and local ordinances are governed by other provisions or not at all, and are not on this page. Whether a particular notice was issued correctly, and the effect of ignoring one, are questions for a licensed Texas attorney.
