Oklahoma/Cameras/Main Discussion View history


There are no Red Light Cameras or Speed Cameras in Oklahoma.

Contrary to popular belief, these cameras do not sit on the top of lights at an intersection. These cameras mounted on traffic signals are used as part of the signal control. These compare sequential images of the intersection approach to determine if there is a vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, etc) waiting and will trigger the sequence. These devices CANNOT issue tickets.

Oklahoma is spanned by a data network dedicated to monitoring and handling traffic. There are traditional traffic monitoring cameras and traffic monitoring radar units covering most of the major highways in the state. These send live feeds to the various traffic agencies around the state and are for monitoring traffic only. Uses of the data and network include issuing Amber/Silver alerts, travel time notifications, and special warnings and information.
