Marylanders would face larger fines the faster they’re caught driving by a speed camera, under a new proposal in the state legislature.
Currently, cameras in Maryland issue fines of $40 for anyone caught going 12 mph or more over the speed limit through school zones, residential zones or in front of any other speed camera that isn’t operating in a highway work zone.
But after increasing fines through work zones last year, the faster you go above the speed limit, the higher the ticket you get. Under the latest proposal, each camera in the state would operate that way.
“The lowest tier, which is 12 mph above the speed limit, stays the same,” said state Sen. Jeff Waldstreicher, who represents part of Montgomery County and is sponsoring the senate version of the bill.
