Los Angeles has activated roughly the first 20 cameras of its Automated Speed Safety System, a program aimed at drivers exceeding the speed limit.

A Los Angeles Department of Transportation spokesperson said earlier this month that all 125 cameras in the program would be activated before the end of the year.

According to local reporting, the rollout begins with a 60-day warning period before civil fines, which can reach up to $500, are issued.
