    Never fear! Our glorious leaders in Tally are trying to fix that! See HB 325 and SB 2166.

    It's also against Florida state law to use cameras for ticketing for state traffic laws. Apparently local jurisdictions - like here in Fort Lauderdale which is why I was looking it up - have been installing them anyway (they are all digital networked cameras) with the expectation that the law might be overturned soon. Then they'd just have to modify the software to enable any new features. Also, some of them - Pembroke Pines - are using them anyway to ticket for local ordinances like "failure to stop before the white line at a red light" rather than the state law against running red lights so they can follow the letter of the law rather than the spirit.

    The latest attempt thankfully failed.

    Personally, I'm considering starting up a company to sell infrared lights to be mounted on your dash facing up at the angle of the cameras. ;)

    Trying doing a google search before you post about things. From the actual bill:

    amending s. 800.04, F.S.; providing that it is a life felony for an offender 18 years of age or older to commit lewd or lascivious molestation against a victim younger than 12 years of age;

    You can find the bill at HERE
