Shreveport Red-Light/Speed Camera Programme Defects
Shreveport's automated enforcement programme has historically been challenged and at times suspended. Cameras require a sworn officer review under La. R.S. §32:398.4, valid calibration, and signage compliant with the MUTCD. Documentation requests and challenges to officer-review certifications have produced high dismissal rates.
Legal basis
La. R.S. §32:398.4; Shreveport Code of Ordinances Sec. 90; MUTCD
