School Zone Speed Cameras in Georgia: What Drivers Need to Know

Episode Summary: In this episode of Milltown Lawyers, Attorney James Dutton breaks down the controversial School Zone Safety Camera Law in Georgia — a law originally created to protect children but now raising serious constitutional and due process concerns. James exposes how these cameras, managed by for-profit companies, issue automated tickets that bypass key constitutional protections like the right to a hearing, a jury trial, and to face one’s accuser. He shares firsthand experience from representing dozens of clients caught in this system, revealing how the law’s inconsistent enforcement leaves citizens paying fines without proper legal recourse. He also updates listeners on recent legislative efforts to ban remote policing, and why he believes this program has ultimately made school zones less safe by removing human crossing guards and replacing them with ineffective technology.
