On March 3, 2026, a Florida judge ruled the state's red light camera law unconstitutional. We are investigating whether cities that collected red light camera fines may be required to issue refunds to drivers.
Every case is different. No result is guaranteed.
Check If You QualifyOn March 3, 2026, County Court Judge Steven P. DeLuca ruled that Florida's red light camera statute (§ 316.0083) is unconstitutional as applied. The problem: a red light camera photographs a license plate, not a driver. But under this law, the ticket goes to whoever owns the vehicle, regardless of who was actually driving. To avoid the fine, the owner must prove someone else was driving. The court found that this flips the constitutional standard on its head. Instead of the government proving guilt, the accused is forced to disprove it.
“To adjudicate guilt based solely on ownership would relieve the government of its constitutional obligation to prove every fact necessary to constitute the offense beyond a reasonable doubt.” — Judge Steven P. DeLuca, Order Granting Motion to Dismiss, Case No. 25135882TI20A
If this ruling is upheld, cities and counties that operated red light camera programs may have collected fines under an unconstitutional law — and could potentially be required to issue refunds to the drivers who paid. We are investigating this possibility.
