Automated Speed Enforcement Citations

Published by data.sf.gov | City of San Francisco | Catalog Last Checked: September 02, 2026 at 06:55 PM | Dataset Last Updated: August 25, 2026
A. SUMMARY This dataset contains daily counts of warnings and citations issued by the SFMTA’s Automated Speed Enforcement program, broken down by camera. Some enforcement locations have two cameras to monitor traffic in both directions. To show which direction a camera is facing, a directional abbreviation is used—like NB for northbound, meaning traffic heading north. This dataset does not represent ALL speeding vehicles passing by our cameras and should not be used to draw conclusions about vehicle speeding behavior. There are many reasons why a valid speeding event captured by our cameras may not result in a warning or citation being issued. Common reasons may include staffing challenges, software updates, and blocked/unreadable license plates. The dataset also includes the average speed of vehicles that received warnings or citations, as well as citation counts categorized by how much the vehicle exceeded the speed limit: • 11–15 mph over • 16–20 mph over • 21+ mph over For more information about the program, visit SFMTA.com/SpeedCameras. B. HOW THE DATASET IS CREATED Data is collected through SFMTA's Automated Speed Enforcement Program. C. UPDATE PROCESS This dataset will update quarterly. D. HOW TO USE THIS DATASET You can filter warnings issued by day, site/location, number of warnings issued, posted speed limit, average speed, and speed distribution bucket.
