SPEED CAMERAS PRESS RELEASE

During the week of November 21st, the Calvert County Automated Speed Enforcement Unit will be moving the speed enforcement camera from Mill Creek Middle School to Huntingtown Elementary School.  This camera will be placed near the front of the school in the eastbound lane.  In addition, the cameras in front of Northern Middle and Mt. Harmony Elementary will remain in operation. 
As a courtesy, the locations of the cameras are also posted on the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office website and Facebook page. 
  • Cameras are active throughout the year, Monday through Friday, from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.   This does not alter any posted speed reduction times. 
  • Citations are issued to the registered owner of the vehicle, and only if the speed was 12 mph or more over the posted speed limit.  The camera will adjust for the reduced speed times. 
  • A school zone speed camera violation is a $40 fine with no points.

If you have any questions or concerns about the Calvert County Safety for Students program, please contact Captain David Payne at 410-535-1600 ext. 2593, or email at paynedp@co.cal.md.us.
