Photo Red-Light Violation
These violations are different than any other usual traffic violations and have no impact on your driving record or insurance. Pursuant to Georgia Law, payment of the civil penalty shall not be made part of the driving record of the person nor shall it be used by insurance companies in calculating motor vehicle insurance premiums nor be deemed a criminal conviction. The amount of the penalty is shown on the notice that was previously mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle that has allegedly failed to stop or crossed the white stop line on the pavement and entered the intersection after the circular or arrow signal has turned red. The maximum penalty amount for the violation is $70. If you fail to respond to the notice with payment of the penalty or file an affidavit naming the driver or file an appeal by the due date shown on the violation notice, an additional $25 late-fee assessment will be added each 30-day period the violation remains unpaid.
To pay, file an affidavit naming the driver, or appeal the violation:
