Police Department-Red Light

The Elk Grove Village Police Department will be issuing citations for disregarding traffic control devices monitored by red light cameras. The citation will be issued to the vehicle owner if that vehicle fails to stop and remain stopped before an intersection that is controlled by a red signal. Additionally, a failure to stop and at an intersection with a permitted right turn on red will be a violation if the vehicle does not come to a complete stop.

Vehicle owners will be issued a citation notice with a link to a website that permits viewing of the violation via the Internet. Vehicle owners can also request a hearing date to contest the violation.
