Section 761.144.7. Evaluation and reporting.

         144.7(1) Annual evaluation. Annually, each local jurisdiction with active automated enforcement on Iowa’s primary highway system shall evaluate the effectiveness of its use.

            a.               At a minimum, the evaluation shall:

             (1)             Address the impact of automated enforcement technology on reducing speeds or the number of red-light running violations for those sites being monitored.

             (2)             Identify the number and type of collisions at the sites being monitored, listing comparison data for before-and-after years. If the system includes intersection enforcement, only the monitored approaches should be included in the evaluation.

             (3)             Evaluate and document the automated traffic enforcement system’s impact on addressing the critical traffic safety issue(s) listed in the justification report if a justification report was part of the system’s initial approval process.

             (4)             Provide the total number of citations issued for each calendar year the system has been in operation.

             (5)             Certify that the calibration requirements of subrule 144.6(4) have been met.
