Ridgewood NJ, News 12 is reporting that a preliminary settlement was filed yesterday in a lawsuit that claims the lights didn’t give drivers ample time to hit the brakes.
Under the terms of the settlement, Arizona-based American Traffic Solutions would set up a $4.2 million fund to pay plaintiffs. The company isn’t admitting any wrongdoing or liability giving drivers ticketed by New Jersey’s red-light cameras last year one step closer to getting some of their money back.
The suite involved the following towns ; Brick, Deptford, East Brunswick, East Windsor, Jersey City, Lawrence, Linden, Glassboro, Gloucester Township, Monroe, Palisades Park, Piscataway, Pohatcong, Rahway, Roselle Park, Union, Wayne and Woodbridge.
Those ticketed before August 2012 in any of the 18 towns involved in the suite and paid the $85 fine would be eligible to receive money back.
