  • Indian Head Highway in Maryland now has three speeding cameras that have collectively issued 9,000 tickets, since August — amounting to roughly 1,500 a month.
  • The Rev. Dr. Robert L. Screen, a safety advocate, along with others, lobbied for the cameras after experiencing many losses in the community as a result of car wrecks.
  • “From 2007 up until the current time — we’ve actually lost 68 people on this roadway,” Screen said.
  • Screen asks that people show some restraint on Indian Head Highway. 
  • “When we are asking a person to slow down — it’s all working their character and a position of trust — can we trust you to do that?” Screen said.
