Bill to Ban Photo Radar Revived

A state Senate committee has revived a bill that would ban photo radar on Arizona highways. The Arizona Republic reports that the bill was tacked on to a transportation bill that was approved on Thursday. A similar bill passed a committee earlier this year but failed to get a hearing while lawmakers were focusing on the budget.

Last year Arizona lawmakers created the first statewide network of speed enforcement cameras. Police initially planned to set up 100 cameras around the state but stopped after 36 fixed cameras and 42 mobile units.
