Along with the number one goal of safety, the<br />
Village would like to reduce the number of red<br />
light tickets issued. Please be reminded of the<br />
basic rules of the road when it comes to red<br />
lights so you can avoid a ticket, whether from<br />
a police officer or a red light camera.<br />
RULES OF THE ROAD<br />
• All you have to do is STOP when the light<br />
turns red. That’s it! Just STOP.<br />
• Going straight through? STOP when the<br />
light turns red.<br />
• Making a right turn on red? STOP at the<br />
red light, look for pedestrians, and proceed<br />
when it’s clear.<br />
• Turning left against traffic? Wait behind the<br />
crosswalk until oncoming cars have passed, then make<br />
your turn on green. If the light changes while you’re<br />
waiting, STOP at the red light.<br />
Sometimes you’ll notice the red light camera flash even when<br />
you’ve done everything right, don’t worry! Sometimes the<br />
cameras flash to recalibrate themselves. In addition, all red<br />
light camera tickets go through a two-step review before<br />
being mailed, to make sure a violation occurred.<br />
The bottom line is: drive safely, STOP at all red lights, and<br />
you won’t get a ticket! Let’s work together to keep everyone<br />
safe! GV<br />
