SPEED SAFETY SYSTEM IMPACT REPORT 1
CITY OF GLENDALE
Per California Assembly Bill 645, the City of Glendale has been chosen to implement a Speed Safety Pilot Program until January 1, 2032.
The purpose of this program is to advance the City of Glendale’s transportation safety and equity. This technology has the potential to reduce speed-related collisions and injuries and the trajectory of speed safety hazards to reduce speed-related collisions and injuries. Photo enforcement through a speed safety system is a key component which aligns with Glendale’s Safe & Healthy Streets Plan to improve street safety.
The City of Glendale is committed to becoming a safer environment for residents in all transportation modes and across all abilities.
DESCRIPTION OF SAFETY SYSTEM
Technology and Traffic Safety
Existing law establishes a basic speed law that prohibits a person from driving a vehicle on a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable given the weather, visibility, traffic, and highway conditions. However, regardless of preexisting law, speed-related incidents have been a recurring issue. Vehicular speed is a concern.
Reducing potential speed-related collisions can improve overall safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and operators of motor vehicles and their passengers.
System Description
a) A “speed safety system” or “system” is a fixed or mobile radar or laser system or any other electronic device that utilizes automated equipment to detect a violation of speed laws and obtains a clear photograph of a speeding vehicle’s rear license plate.
The system only captures data of a speeding vehicle’s rear license plate and does not capture data of non-speeding vehicles.
b) A speed safety system is defined as a system that is capable of detecting speed violations for both directions of travel and may consist of more than one device.
The Department shall use the surveillance technology only for the following authorized purposes:
Authorized Use(s):
1. Enforce speed limits on City streets in accordance with California Vehicle Code section 22425-22431.
2. Analysis of and reporting on speed enforcement, as required under the Speed Safety System Pilot Program.
The surveillance technology will include automated speed enforcement cameras, which may be owned by either the vendor or the City. These cameras will be strategically placed in areas with high rates of speed-related collisions. The systems utilize cellular communication to transmit data to backend software, providing authorized users with access to uploaded photographs, radar readings, and license plate information.

CITY OF GLENDALE
PURPOSE OF THE SYSTEM
The City’s use of the Speed Safety System is being implemented to provide the following benefits to the community:
Public Safety: The implementation of speed safety programs is proven to reduce the risk of severe injuries and fatalities due to speeding, enhancing overall public safety in the City. The speed safety program has demonstrated its effectiveness in minimizing speed-related collisions, thereby improving road safety for everyone. Equitable Enforcement: Speed safety systems can promote equity by improving reliability and eliminating traffic enforcement biases. Safety systems enhance the predictability and effectiveness of speeding enforcement, allowing for broader implementation.
City Resources: Speed violations can be detected remotely, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of speed enforcement.
Policy Development: The speed safety program five-year pilot period will inform the future of potential automated speed enforcement statewide policies. The data collected on vehicles exceeding posted speed limits can be used in prioritizing future City policies and traffic safety measures.
CIVIL RIGHTS AND SAFEGUARDS
The City of Glendale has identified and assessed potential impacts as well as mitigation strategies to protect the civil liberties and civil rights of the community as it pertains to the Speed Safety Program.
Discrimination
Automated speed safety systems, distributed throughout the City, aim to eliminate racial biases seen in traditional traffic stops, reducing the risk for drivers of color.
Economic Loss
The speed safety system is equipped to reduce misidentification or identify theft and will only provide citations to those that have exceeded the speed limit. The automated enforcement is intended to reduce staff time dedicated to speed enforcement, reducing overall costs.
Loss of Liberty
Improper exposure to arrests or detainment due to incomplete or inaccurate data, is highly unlikely because speed cameras are tested regularly for quality assurance before issuing violations.
Loss of Dignity
The surveillance system only captures rear license plates and prohibits images of vehicle occupants, with any pedestrian or cyclist images being destroyed by the vendor.
SPEED SAFETY SYSTEM IMPACT REPORT 3
CITY OF GLENDALE
Loss of Autonomy
The City of Glendale will not share surveillance data with other departments or entities, in compliance with California Vehicle Code section 22425(l)(5).
Loss of Trust
License plate numbers are solely used for speed violations, with strict policies allowing only authorized access to system data and prohibiting facial recognition technology by California law.
Data collected is confidential, not shared with third parties, and may only be released to the registered owner or the individual identified as the driver at the time of an alleged violation.
Physical Harm
The speed safety system lacks access to distinguishable individual information for targeting.
The automated enforcement does not provide physical harm in any way.
FISCAL COST
The fiscal costs, such as the initial purchase of equipment, personnel, and other ongoing costs, include the following in Table 1.
Table 1 Estimated Annual Costs (Per Year for 9 Locations) Type Ongoing Costs
Salary & Fringe Benefits $320,000
Vendor Operational Costs
(Camera System, Citation
Processing, Citation Appeals
$605,000
Other City Costs
(procurement, signage,
training, power costs, etc.)
$75,000
Total Cost $1,000,000
The implementation of these systems are estimated to cost approximately $1 million per year for five years to cover nine locations. These costs include expenses for installation, maintenance, and operation of automated speed enforcement systems, as well as administrative costs related to processing violations and program oversight.
To fund this initiative, staff is requesting funding through the General Fund. However, under AB- 645, revenue generated from citations is expected to offset operational costs before being allocated to local traffic-calming measures. Additional funding sources, such as grants or state funding, may also be explored to reduce the program’s impact on the General Fund.
The program will require one to two full-time staff members for oversight, administration, and coordination with law enforcement strategies.

CAMERA LOCATION DEPLOYMENT
Screening Factors
The initial factors established by AB 645 for eligibility included:
- Cameras shall be located on a high-injury street, a school zone street, or a street with documented speed racing.
- Cameras cannot be located on state highways, freeways, or expressways. - Cameras should be in areas that are geographically and socioeconomically diverse.
Location Selection Methodology
The preliminary speed safety camera locations were recommended after conducting quantitative and qualitative analysis. This analysis included an examination of the City’s Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) study locations, speed-related crashes, speeding citations, street downgrades, and notable or unique intersection features. Appendix A contains the memorandum that describes the process for recommending locations. The initial assessment identified the 16 preliminary locations recommended for a speed safety system.
PROPOSED SPEED CAMERA LOCATIONS
Determining Recommended Speed Safety Camera Locations
The top 16 locations that were recommended through data analysis were presented to the community for evaluation. The City also conducted speed surveys from December 2024 – January 2025. Speed surveys identified the number of vehicles exceeding the speed limit by 11 MPH or more for each preliminary location. The community input and speed surveys were used to make recommendations for the nine initial pilot locations.
The total count of community votes for specific segments from the Glendale Speed Safety Survey, speed limit violations, and total collisions (2014 – 2024) are presented in Figure 1.

APPENDICES
Appendix A: Location Recommendation Methodology
Introduction
The implementation of California AB-645 mandates the installation of speed safety camera systems in up to nine designated locations within the city of Glendale. These locations are strategically selected based on prevalent instances of high or unsafe speeds among drivers, the severity of collisions that have occurred, and the geographic circumstances of the location.
Elevated speeds significantly escalate the risk of severe injuries or fatalities in the event of a collision. Evidence supports that speed safety cameras effectively reduce instances of speeding, collisions, and associated fatalities.
The primary objective of the Speed Safety Camera Pilot Program is to mitigate speed-related safety issues, improve street safety, and reduce speed-related crashes.
Methodology
To calculate potential locations for the Speed Safety System Pilot Program, quantitative and qualitative analysis was conducted to determine the nine possible camera system locations.
This analysis included an examination of the City’s Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) study locations, speed-related crashes, speeding citations, street downgrades, and notable or unique intersection features. These 16 locations are the preliminary draft of locations. Public input and field examination will narrow the final list to the nine selected locations.
The purpose of this analysis is to define a set of locations to receive community feedback and conduct field review. Community engagement aims to solicit feedback from residents. This is performed to gather insight and garner participation in location selection. Location field review will also be conducted to assess and confirm location suitability and logistical effectiveness. This assessment establishes that speed safety cameras are strategically placed to achieve the goals of mitigating speed-related safety issues, improving street safety, and reducing speed-related crashes.
Summary of Data
The selected locations are segments of around half a mile. The actual implementation will be a shorter segment, which will be determined by field verification to determine locations of power, communication, driveways, signage, etc. The preliminary locations were selected based on an analysis of:
TIMS 2014 to 2024 speed related collision data
Citation data provided by the City of Glendale for a period of 4 years (2019 to 2024) LRSP locations that were identified as having safety challenges due to speeding Disadvantaged communities are defined by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment as “the top 25% of census tracts experiencing disproportionate amounts of pollution, environmental degradation, and socioeconomic and public health conditions”

CITY OF GLENDALE
Of the 16 interim locations, 12 are in census tracts designated as disadvantaged communities
A methodology flow chart of the location selection process is shown below. After determining locations using the decision flow chart, the locations were vetted based on geographical and socioeconomic factors to evaluate equal representation across the City.
SPEED SAFETY SYSTEM IMPACT REPORT 16
CITY OF GLENDALE
16 Interim Locations
Locations across the city were considered based on a comprehensive analysis of data on speed-related crashes, speeding citations, and recommendations from law enforcement authorities. The locations were narrowed down to 16 recommended locations based on the frequency and severity of the aforementioned attributes.
Locations are not inherently hierarchical. Based on feedback from city officials, segment attributes were to be treated as equal, specifically speeding citations, LRSP locations, and non- injury collisions. Collisions were categorized into four categories: fatal, severe, other visible injury, and complaint of pain. While each type of collision is important when analyzing segments, segments with more fatal and severe injury collisions were chosen over those without.
