After disabling red light cams citywide in 2005 because of a low conviction rate, CBS2 says:
The council revived the program last year after approving a contract with Nestor Traffic System, which provides a dual-digital video camera system that records violators as they approach and travel through an intersection after the light has changed to red.
The license plates are photographed from both the rear and the front, resulting in more convictions, according to Los Angeles police officials.
The list of affected locations is:
