Lt. Mark Riggs was in charge of Fremont's Red Light Camera Program until 2012. He now represents Redflex, Fremont's camera vendor. Recently he and Menlo Park police were studying the feasibility of installing a new camera. In less than one day over 100 right-on-red violations were recorded. The Menlo Park officer asked if driver behavior changes, won't we see a drastic reduction? Riggs said the number of violations will be high for a few months and then stabilize. "I can say that most intersections that have right turns enforced continue to produce consistent numbers." Riggs should know. Fremont has not seen a decrease in violations in over 3 years.
