Speed enforcement van returns to Elliott Ave.

Posted by Doug Alder on August 13th, 2010

Seattle Police are once again cracking down on speeders on Elliott Avenue. We snapped these pictures today of the photo radar van that’s been used around the city for the past few months. Today, it’s back on Elliott near Mercer.

The van is equipped with a traffic safety camera and across-the-road radar. Depending on your speed, a ticket will cost you anywhere from $124 all the way up to $247. The ticket is mailed to you. The van is part of a pilot program that’s set to end this fall. The state legislature will then decide whether to continue the program.
