Prince George's County is expanding its speed camera program -- just a few months after it started.
The county began ticketing with speed cameras in September, and in the first 40 days speeding in school zones where cameras were located was reduced almost 50 percent.
"Believe it or not, after you've gotten a couple of those tickets, you tend to be aware that you're speeding," says Prince George's County Executive Rushern Baker.
Baker says the county is regularly adding more speed cameras, and the goal is to have 72 mobile cameras by later this year.
The cameras operate between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, and they go off when a car is going at least 12 miles per hour over the posted speed limit.
