2,000 Cameras Will Be Watching How You Drive in New York City

Cameras have stood guard outside New York City schools for years to keep children safe from speeding cars.

City officials say they have led to fewer injuries and crashes.

Now the city is sharply expanding the use of such cameras to nearly every neighborhood. It’s part of a far-reaching effort to enforce speed limits, including on busy streets with no schools and at times when classes are out — at night, on holidays and during summer vacation.
