Section 45-37A-100.08 Identifying owner of vehicle. In the event the evidence produced by a
photographic traffic signal enforcement system, a photographic stop sign enforcement system,

45-37A-331.31
Section 45-37A-331.31 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and declares the following:
(1) Accident data establishes that speeding vehicles have been and are a dangerous problem
in Midfield, Alabama. (2) Studies have found that automated speeding enforcement in a municipal
area is a highly accurate method for detecting speeding violations and is very effective in
reducing the number of speeding violations and decreasing the number of traffic accidents,
deaths, and injuries. (3) Current Alabama law provides that speeding is a criminal misdemeanor.
Under Alabama law, one who commits such a misdemeanor is subject to prosecution only if the
misdemeanor was witnessed by either a duly empowered police officer or other witness who makes
a verified complaint to a sworn magistrate. (4) Many jurisdictions that have adopted laws
that allow the use of automated speeding enforcement have experienced a significant reduction
in the instances of speeding, and the Legislature finds that it...
