Maryland lawmakers propose a bill to install traffic cameras at pedestrian crosswalks in three counties, aiming to penalize drivers who dont yield to pedestrians with a $65 fine. The bill, House Bill 938, has been debated in the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee, with supporters arguing it will enhance pedestrian safety, while critics worry about potential false positives. An AI traffic camera study reveals thousands of no-yield violations daily, with over 3,000 in Montgomery County and more than 1,000 in Prince George’s. The bills fate remains uncertain as pedestrian safety remains a priority.
