will police become obsolete?

how about robot cops.

When are they going to deploy the unmanned drones?

We need more police men writing tickets in this town. People drive in crazy ways all the time - roll through stop signs, speed,( even in residetial areas), don't look when entering a roadway, push going through yeallow lights, not allow another car the right of way or to change lanes, follow too closely, not to mention cell phone and texting problems. People are too aggressive on our roads and there is little consequence for them. Our town could make money by inforcing the rules. If word got out, maybe someof these drivers would begin to follow the law - and not just at the intersections with cameras.

mrs. G go back to bed.

you sound like a senior.

vote for the next garbage collection in brick.

Give the heroes a bigger raise and pensions

I have asked for cameras at the Laurelton interchange, People are constantly making lefts off Princeton and off of 88.At least twice a week I almost get creamed by someone flooring it to make the left.

There have been 2 very serious accidents there in 2 months.

F Cove closed down, Red light cameras, invasive bamboo. I see a trend here. Its going to get worse until people finally stand up against these _ssclowns.

I don't make that left turn often onto Brick Blvd even though I go through the west bound Rt 70 lane everyday but I made a left onto Brick Blvd the other day and found that "Yelleow Arrow" is about 2 seconds long. Not long enough at all !!! Try stoppin a F-350, (9,999 Lb's) in 2 seconds at 45 MPH. CAN"T BE DONE !!! Did they manipulate the timing of this light or has it always been such a short yellow to red ???

when you finally get that monster stopped Greg there's a good chance you'll get rear ended . Just stick to the parkway , no red lights and pickup trucks seem to have no speed limit from what I see in the mornings.

Contrary to a previous post supposedly by a policeman, there is no law setting the timing of amber lights. There is a guideline set by the " Uniform Manual of Traffic Control Devices", a federal publication. That guideline is 1 second for each 10 MPH of the posted speed limit, if the speed limit is odd then the timing is rounded up to the next 10 MPH, if the speed limit is 35, the amber should be at least 4 seconds.

Just another way to track us.

Looks like north Brick is being targeted with these cameras...what about the other side of town????

So since we the police will no longer have to " monitor " this section, a few cops will be released from their duties, right? Afterall, they will no longer be needed.

photoblocker.com check it out.

My concern with these cameras are that if you are making a legitimate turn and sit in the intersection and wait for the oncoming traffic to pass will you be given a ticket if the oncoming traffic run the light and leave you waiting to turn?

Hey Brick Officials.....how about using some of your ticket generated money to start paving Lake Riviera, especially North Shore Drive, by the 7/11......who puts stupid "speed tables" 20 feet from an entrance? Get moving....

Real question is the effect on traffic safety. Has there been a reduction in the accident rate? Otherwise this is an ineffective traffic control taxing drivers. Taxes of this nature are not allowed by law. I would like to see ticketing criterea. I never do right on red when I see these divices for fear of misstake. Big brother is watching. Do police not flashing lights get tickets too? They are making mistakes too.

i see stats on the number of tickets but where are the stats on the number of accidents. afterall, wasn't that the reason for the lights in the first place? wasn't it to save lives and injuries not to generate income.

Has anyone realize that these quick flashing lights are a trigger for anyone suffering any type of sensory issues, migaines or even more so, Autism, With all this" Autism awareness "it seems counterproductive.

Those flashing lights give me terrible migraines.

Big Brother is watching you!

No more F cove cause gov't hasn't figured out how to put a tax on fun yet. Cameras at lights cropping everywhere in the state, upto 3 photo enforced lights alone in Brick yet they still they cry poverty. I have an idea to attract more people to the shore this summer...a new slogan, " New Jersey & You, Aushwitz Together."

Yay, another intersection at which people will slam on their breaks as soon as it turns yellow due to fear of the camera

When you receive the ticket in the mail do you get points on your license for it?

Just think, if they keep putting up red light cameras all over town, just think of what could be done with the millions and billions the town make off of them, we won't have to pay taxes anymore, the town can build a super high school ten stories high and go back to one high school. All the beaches will be FREE for residence! The town can pay for everyone's kid to go to a Ivy League schools for free, build that water park, build a Imax Theater on the Foodtown property and no charge for the movies for residences! I see a bright future for Brick, people will be flocking here in droves, buying homes, of course we will all get used to the flashing at night, after all, look at all the BIG BUCKS being generated by all that flashing, we can change the name of the town to Flashtown. We might even be able to buy the best politicians for sale on the planet even some Washington congressmen! WE ARE ALL GOING TO BE RICH!

I had my red light running camera ticket dismissed as I found out through research that most towns are not following the law as it is written but still giving tickets. You can not be guilty if the law is not being followed by the town who had the camera installed.
People who receive a Red Light Running Camera ticket should plead not guilty and ask for the following information through that town's clerk in an OPRA (Open Public Records Act) request. She will help you with the OPRA papers. Or look up the form online on the town's website you received your ticket. Most likely all New Jersey Red Light Running cameras are not complying with the law.

This is the part they are not complying to - Signal Timing Certification (The paragraph below is the important information to ask the town for.)
*A certification by the municipal engineer that (a) the intersection or intersections in question have a minimum duration of the amber light at the traffic control signal of 3 seconds if at least 85% of the vehicular traffic approaching the signal is traveling at a speed of 25 mph or less; and (b) for each five mile increase in the speed of vehicular traffic referred to in subparagraph (a) of this paragraph above 30 mph this minimum duration of the amber light shall be increased by ½ second. * This part of the law is most likely NOT being complied with by any town in the RED LIGHT CAMERA program throughout the state of New Jersey. You can also ask for the same information from the NJDOT.
Some towns may not be doing the following either - the law states - e. A traffic control signal monitoring system shall be inspected and certified at least once every six months by the municipal engineer from the date of its installation for the duration of the five-year pilot program.

Do the following to contest your ticket: Get OPRA forms in the town you received the ticket. Request ALL information to be sent to you by email. Copy the following onto the forms + add your information
I am requesting:
1) The "Intersection Traffic Signal Timing & Certification" submission that was part of the "Application for Red Light Running Automated Enforcement - Intersection Request" for the (insert the street names at the intersection) intersection that was sent to the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) for approval. This is the third item in the "Checklist of items for submission" shown on the last page of the application. The requirements for this submission are defined in the "Signal Timing Certification" section of the application.
2) If not already included in item 1, the most recent traffic speed distribution and associated statistics for (insert the name of the road as close to the intersection with (insert the name of the intersecting street) as possible.
3) Date of installation of the red light camera system at (insert the street names at the intersection where you received your ticket) intersection.
4) The two most recent traffic control signal monitoring system inspection and certification reports by the municipal engineer as prescribed by Section 3 of P.L. 2007, c.348 (C.39:4-8.14).
5) A copy of (insert name of the town) "Application for Red Light Running Automated Enforcement - Intersection Request" submitted to NJDOT.

You need to request the following information on an OPRA form from NJDOT (New Jersey Department of Transportation). You can do this online through their website - http://www.state.nj.us/transportation/refdata/opra/
I request the following:
The most recent of the Daily Average Speed Data/85th percentile speed for (insert name of the road you were travelling) nearest to (insert the intersecting street the camera was at) In the Township of (insert town): (1) For both directions of traffic: approximate mileposts (insert milepost numbers from the road you were driving on from a couple of miles before and after the intersection). (example such as milepost 45.6 to 50.3)

*You also need to find out what the speed limit was on the roadway you were driving and also the timing of the yellow portion of the traffic light.

Look at your information you receive back and see if the town is following the law as it is written.
Good luck!

I have to drive though 4 red camera lights each day, I go to work so I got a ticket a few weeks ago for $ 85.00.I am a careful driver I may add. I didn't have the time to fight it and I work at night. So how can I fight it? So I paid it.So I have $ 85.00 less to spend in the local stores in Brick. I am going to not shop at the stores near these lights anymore .I'm not going take a chance driving past these lights just to shop.This is the only way I can think to fight these red camera lights by not shopping at the stores near them.Can you imagine what could happen, if we all just stop shopping at these stores near these awful lights?

I will no longer shop or spend any of my hard earned money in Brick. If the residents of Brick are too "timid" to throw out their elected representatives that place this burden on them, then let the businesses who depend on the people from outside of Brick suffer from lack of business. You have a bunch of losers running this town.

At first glance, I thought the headline of the article said: "Brick's Third Group of Red Light Cameras Activate Money". Not too far from the truth.
