House Bill 657 is a Florida law that was approved by the Florida Legislature and signed by Governor Ron DeSantis on May 31st, 2023. Under this law, the use of cameras is authorized to enforce speeding violations throughout the school day. The Miami-Dade County Department of Transportation and Public Works will implement the school camera safety program for the 2024 - 2025 school year and beyond.
Photographic evidence will be used to issue a Notice of Violation to the registered owner of a vehicle. The vehicle must exceed the posted speed limit by more than ten (10) mph. The Notice of Violation will include the date, time, location, and photographic evidence of the violation.
The camera enforcement system will be active during the school day session. The exact times vary depending on the individual school schedule. The speed enforcement allowable time periods are as follows:
Within 30 minutes before through 30 minutes after the start of a regularly scheduled breakfast program
Within 30 minutes before through 30 minutes after the start of a regularly scheduled school session
During the entirety of a regularly scheduled school session
Within 30 minutes before through 30 minutes after the end of a regularly scheduled school session.

Camera enforcement systems are set to capture data specified by Miami-Dade County within local, state, and federal guidelines. This data will include photographic stills of the vehicle, and the license plate. It will also include the date, time, location, and speed. All data is encrypted and transmitted to a secure central server, where it is digitally signed to prevent interception and manipulation, ensuring top-level protection for the chain of custody. Original images and data are securely stored in a data vault.
The photo enforcement system is entirely funded by paid violations.
A State of Florida traffic infraction enforcement officer employed by Miami-Dade County is the only agency that can decide if a Notice of Violation is justified.
There are two options offered to the registered owner of the vehicle:
Pay the fine within 30 days from the date of issuance
Request a hearing within 30 days of the date of issuance.
Failure to follow the Notice of Violation options within 30 days of issuance will result in the issuance of a FLORIDA UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION
If the violation is satisfied in the Notice of Violation status, there is no adverse impact to the alleged violator’s driver’s license, vehicle registration or insurance
All options will be included in the Notice of Violation sent to the registered owner.
No. A Notice of Violation is a civil penalty and does not affect your driving privileges or insurance.

The motor vehicle was, at the time of the violation, in the care, custody, or control of another person
The driver of the vehicle was issued a traffic ticket by a law enforcement officer for the same alleged violation.
