Scottsdale's Cameras Explored in Prescott Valley

In an effort to improve highway safety officials in Prescott Valley are considering taking up Scottsdale's good idea to install cameras on state roads that run through their town. State Highway 69, known as "Blood Alley" winds through Yavapai County and has led to a rash of severe auto accidents in and near Prescott Valley. Let's hope folks up there get an opportunity to improve highway safety in their own town.

Scottsdale's safety camera pilot program gets under way soon and results will be be closely monitored to gauge whether the cameras were an effective tool in reducing accidents. Frankly, anything that gets people to slow down on the 101 in Scottsdale should be welcomed as an effective tool.
