== Speed / Red light cameras ==
Laws regarding speed and red light cameras vary between the states and territories, so be sure to understand the details of camera legality in Virginia. Not every camera-looking device at an intersection is a speed or red light camera. Generally speaking:
 
* a speed camera takes a photograph of a vehicle when it passes by the camera at too high a speed.
* a red light camera takes a photograph of a vehicle that enters an intersection after the light is red.
 
In some areas, it takes the photograph when a vehicle is not clear of the intersection some period after the light turns red.
