Red Light Camera Safety Program
Public Awareness

Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert showed his support by signing a proclamation citing the City’s efforts to reduce red light running through the SafeLight, Dallas Stops on Red! Program. The Mayor also proclaimed the week of August 5-11, 2007 as National Stop on Red Week in Dallas.

National Stop on Red Week was created by the U.S. Federal Highway Administration and the American Trauma Society in 1998 to raise awareness about the dangers of red light running. It is held the first full week in August, historically the most dangerous month for fatal red light running crashes.

Dallas officials shared public opinion survey results for the SafeLight, Dallas Stops on Red program at a news conference held August 1, 2007 at Dallas City Hall.
