The Washington County Sheriff is now one of many jurisdictions to use automated speed enforcement to reduce traffic crashes, pedestrian accidents and most important to save lives. The program will provide automated enforcement in school zones.

The fine for violating the posted speed limit is $40.00 for each violation. Violators traveling 12 mph or more over the posted speed limit will activate the speed camera. This will result in a violation notice being issued via the US Mail. All violators may pay the fine or request a court date to contest the speeding violation.

Speed cameras operate Monday – Friday, 6 AM until 8 PM.
