Will the speed cameras being installed on the basin be challenged in court?

Really sad that the first thing Jeff Landry did was put these cameras up

Traffic cameras and fines associated with them violate the Bill of Rights and due process. They are fining a vehicle vs a person. They are 100% unconstitutional.

I’m hopeful these cameras get shot immediately after install.

Houston was forced to get rid of them because they had no way to prove it was you driving. Cameras are a sensitive topic on this board for some reason.

I'd imagine the same will happen with the basin cameras after a couple legal fights

Basin Bridge should be widened to 4 lanes , EB and WB .

The big rigs not adhering to the no passing law is the major reason for wrecks on the bridge. Look at the Causeway - minimal wrecks due to no 18 wheelers. It’s the trucks. While they’re necessary, they need to enforce the existing laws… not cameras.

The fines are going to have to be voluntary unless they want to take the cameras down within a month

I noticed cameras up on the beginning and end of the eastbound lane. Noticed a camera at the beginning of the westbound Atchafalaya Basin bridge but not the end. Cameras were facing in a way that would capture your license plate when you pass them. It was raining when I passed, so I may be wrong. But does anyone know if they've started doing tickets now? I haven't seen anything in the news.

Also noticed those electronic speed signs that flash when you're speeding.

Gov. Landry cancelled the cameras.
