• Cameras are activated Monday through Friday, all year long, from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. with the exception of Wade Elementary School which operates from 7 a.m. until 6 p.m.

• Citations are issued to the registered owner of the vehicle and only if the speed was 12 mph or more over the posted speed limit.

• A school zone speed camera violation is a $40 fine with no points.
