They can't garner a take if the State of NY (assuming we are talking NY) does not authorize the use of the cameras to enforce that particular section of the VTL and approves the diversion of the revenue to the agency or railroad. The split of penalties (who gets what) is always one of the most contentious fights in Albany. Most VTL offenses are not crimes, seizure is only legal in the most serious traffic cases for a very narrow range of offenses, crimes (as defined by law, not common belief) are misdemeanors or felonies, if you want to raise the stakes (which might not be a bad thing) you have to get Albany to buy in. |
