Speed safety camera enforcement will begin at Redmond High School (17272 NE 104th Street), Redmond Middle School (10055 166th Avenue NE), and Rose Hill Middle School (13505 NE 75th Street) on June 12, 2026. The cameras in these school zones will be fully activated – with citations issued for alleged violations – in the designated school zones, during designated hours, when the school zone beacons are flashing. Designated hours typically include 30 minutes before the start of school and after school until 5 p.m. on school days.
The cameras will be deactivated from June 18 - Aug. 31 while Lake Washington School District is not in session. No citations will be issued during this time.
The Speed Safety Camera Pilot Program aims to create a safer environment for students and families near schools and help fund future traffic safety improvements, creating a safer Redmond for all – now and in the years to come.

A child on a bike should never have to flee from a vehicle intentionally chasing them down on the sidewalk after jumping a curb. It is horrifying to watch, and even harder to imagine how differently this could have ended. Thankfully, the child was unharmed.
Lately, conversations around anti-drunk driving technology have been buried under politics and misinformation online. But at the center of this issue are real people and split-second decisions that can turn deadly.
Technology that can help stop an impaired driver from operating a vehicle before a situation escalates like this is worth taking seriously. This is why MADD continues advocating for anti-drunk driving technology.

Behind the wheel, anything that takes your eyes or attention off of the road can be a deadly distraction.
On Monday (4/13), Pullman Police officers will conduct high-visibility @targetzero distracted driving patrols on Grand Ave. & Stadium Way. Please, drive safely!

Most of us came away shocked at just how drunk we felt with a BAC at 0.05, let alone 0.08 percent... it was enough to assure us that a 0.05 percent BAC was plenty drunk." 2/2

"We want people to separate drinking from driving. The best way to stop drunken driving is to prevent impaired drivers at all BAC levels above 0.05 from getting behind the wheel in the first place.

These laws work so well that they’ve been adopted in over 150 countries where BAC limits are 0.05 or lower. Research across decades shows they save lives by an average of 11%."

Washington lawmakers are considering a 0.05 BAC limit to prevent impaired driving deaths. The science shows impairment starts earlier than many think.

"the experiment definitely reinforced sticking to my guns on my habits of only walking to bars near my apartment, getting a ride or taking Ubers for places farther away, or crashing on the couch at friends’ homes when we’re imbibing heavily."

"I was most surprised to learn about the Mellanby Effect, which is a phenomenon where someone feels less impaired by alcohol as they’re sobering up, even when their BAC is the exact same as it was when they felt impaired on the come up." --Inlander Reporter Colton Rasanen
