洛杉矶测速摄像头10月26日启用：首批20处先警告60天，罚款年底才开始
洛杉矶市的测速摄像头系统在 10 月 26 日正式启用，首批 20处摄像头开始工作。这是市议会在 2026 年 3 月 24 日一致通过的试点项目，全网 125处摄像头计划在 2026 年 12 月 31日前全部上线，试点期为五年，之后市府要向州议会提交安全与经济影响综合报告。首批确认点位包括拉布雷亚大道与第一街、费尔法克斯大道与克林顿街、梅尔罗斯大道与海沃斯大道、拉谢内加大道与皮科大道等路口，覆盖路段还包括日落大道、奥林匹克大道、威尼斯大道和 Highland大道的部分路段。需要提醒司机的是，每个摄像头从各自启用日起都有 60 天强制警告期，超速 11英里及以上只会收到 0 美元的警告通知，首批点位的正式罚款要到 2026 年 12月下旬才开始。由于这类罚单属于民事违规，不会记入驾驶记录，也不会影响个人车险。按州法律，罚款收入必须全部再投入当地的道路安全基础设施，用于保护行人、骑行者和司机。市交通部门指出，超速直接导致了洛杉矶 2024年约五分之一的致命车祸，而旧金山试点初期的沿线严重超速已减少多达72%，这也是洛杉矶推行该项目的重要参照。
Los Angeles Speed Cameras Go Live on October 26: First 20 Locations Issue Warnings Only for 60 Days, Fines Start at Year's End
The City of Los Angeles's speed camera system officially went live on October 26, with the first 20 cameras beginning operation. The pilot program was approved unanimously by the city council on March 24, 2026; all 125 cameras across the network are planned to be online by December 31, 2026, the pilot will run for five years, and the city will then submit a comprehensive safety and economic impact report to the state legislature. Confirmed locations in the first batch include the intersections of La Brea Avenue and 1st Street, Fairfax Avenue and Clinton Street, Melrose Avenue and Hawthorne Avenue, and La Cienega Boulevard and Pico Boulevard, with covered segments also including parts of Sunset Boulevard, Olympic Boulevard, Venice Boulevard, and Highland Avenue. Drivers should note that each camera has a mandatory 60-day warning period from its own activation date, during which speeding by 11 mph or more draws only a $0 warning notice; formal fines at the first locations will not begin until late December 2026. Because these tickets are civil violations, they will not be recorded on a driver's record or affect personal auto insurance. Under state law, all fine revenue must be reinvested in local road safety infrastructure to protect pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers. The city transportation department notes that speeding directly contributed to about one-fifth of Los Angeles's fatal crashes in 2024, and that in the early phase of San Francisco's pilot, severe speeding along covered corridors fell by as much as 72% — an important reference point for Los Angeles in launching the program.
