Full Breakdown

Round Rock, like every Texas municipality, is forbidden from running red-light cameras. Section 707.020 states a local authority "may not implement or operate a photographic traffic signal enforcement system" on any street under its jurisdiction. The Texas Legislature ended the programs with House Bill 1631, effective June 2, 2019, and named the attorney general as enforcer. Cities that had cameras shut them down; contracts signed before May 7, 2019 could run out their terms, but Round Rock cannot launch new ones or issue civil penalties from camera images.

Violations & Fines

There are no red-light camera citations to contest in Round Rock. Any attempt by a local authority to issue civil penalties from photographic enforcement images is void, and the Texas attorney general enforces the statewide prohibition.
