Red
Light Camera Transparency
How does it work?
Red light
cameras and associated detection equipment are permanently
installed at intersections that have a high accident rate, and
provide 24-hour traffic surveillance. If a motorist runs a red
light, photographs will be taken of the driver and the vehicle's
license plate. A ticket is then sent to the vehicle's registered
owner.
Where are the cameras be located
in West Hollywood?
There are
24 camera housings located at the following intersections:
- Fountain
Ave & Crescent Heights Blvd
- Sunset Blvd & La Cienega Blvd
- Fairfax Ave & Fountain Ave
- Melrose Ave & La Cienega Blvd
- La Brea Ave & Fountain Ave

- Santa Monica Blvd & La Brea Ave

What do I do if I get a ticket?
A citation
issued through the West Hollywood Photo Safety Program is the
same as any other traffic citation issued within our City's
limits.
If you would like to view better images of your violation, using
your citation number and PIN number listed, go to
www.cite-web.com
You can pay the fine, which is established by state law
at $465.00*, or you can appear in court to contest the citation or
even attend traffic school.
What if I wasn't the driver of my
vehicle?
If you are
the vehicle's registered owner and someone else was driving your
car, you may complete a portion of the citation that identifies
the driver and return it by mail. The ticket can be dismissed
and reissued to the person who was driving your car.
