Florida Gov. DeSantis Signs School Bus Camera Bill

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday signed a bill that will allow school districts to use cameras designed to capture images of drivers who illegally pass school buses.

The law (SB 766), which will take effect in July, could lead to drivers facing $225 fines if they get nabbed.

Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, a Spring Hill Republican who was one of five senators who voted against the measure last month, likened the proposal to red-light cameras, which have long been controversial.

 

“So I’m assuming this system that we’re setting up for the school-bus passing infractions, is that going to be similar to red-light cameras and how they are capturing the infraction and then levying the fines after it’s done administratively?” Ingoglia asked during a May 1 Senate discussion.
