Facts An Officer Must Verify Before Issueing A Ticket

Red light camera photos taken by road-rule enforcement cameras must be viewed by a person before any infringement notice or ticket is issued to the driver, and judged to be satisfactory or not. Verifiers typically must check some or all of the following:

1) no sign of interference with the vehicle detector by objects other than the vehicle
2) license plate readable according to a legal standard
3) make and model of vehicle matches the recorded license plate nunber
4) appearance of the driver in the images is adequate or that it matches the picture on the drivers license of the vehicle's registered owner.

Item 4 makes no sense. The picture is of the car and rear plate. How does the picture of a driver get taken?

Most red light cameras take pictures of the driver as well. The picture must be clear and you can identify the actual driver.

so does this mean that the ticket is issued base on the picture of the driver or to the person who owns the car? like will the ticket be sent home to the person registered to the car or will they send it home to the person driving the car. assuming the person driving the car is not the owner.
