Do Glendale speed camera tickets carry DMV points?

No. Vehicle Code 22426(a) says an AB 645 speed camera violation is subject only to a civil penalty and does not result in a DMV point or a license suspension.

How do I contest a Glendale speed camera ticket?

Ask the city for an initial review within 30 calendar days of the notice’s mailing date. If it is denied, you can request an administrative hearing within 21 days, and after that appeal to the superior court within 30 days. The notice lists the city’s address and options.

Do fines go up for repeat violations?

No. AB 645 sets fines by speed only: $50, $100, $200 or $500. A vehicle’s first 11 to 15 mph violation in the city is a warning instead of a $50 fine.

What if someone else was driving?

AB 645 notices go to the registered owner based on a photo of the rear plate (Vehicle Code 22426), and the law does not list someone else driving as an exception. The affidavit of nonliability that comes with the notice covers a vehicle rented or leased from a rental company or through a personal vehicle sharing program (with the agreement) and a stolen vehicle (with a police report), returned within 30 days of the mailing date.

Glendale is one of the six cities named in AB 645. The city describes nine camera sites chosen from 16 candidates, and its program site schedules installation and warning notices for January 2027 and violation notices from March 2027. AB 645 notices from Glendale are handled by the city, not the Los Angeles County Superior Court, until a final appeal.

Fine Amounts

AB 645 fines are set by Vehicle Code 22426(c) and depend only on speed: $50 for 11 to 15 mph over, $100 for 16 to 25 mph over, $200 for 26 mph or more over, and $500 for 100 mph or more. A vehicle’s first 11 to 15 mph violation in the city gets a warning notice instead of a fine, and each new camera starts with 60 days of warnings. The law has no extra penalty for repeat violations. These are civil penalties with no DMV points (VC 22426(a)). People with low incomes can ask for an 80% or 50% reduction, and people who qualify as indigent can also ask for a payment plan or community service (VC 22429).

Speed Over Limit	Fine (VC 22426(c))
11–15 mph over	$50 (first one in the city is a warning)
16–25 mph over	$100
26+ mph over	$200
100 mph or more	$500

How to Contest

An AB 645 notice from Glendale does not start in court. You ask the city for a free initial review within 30 calendar days of the notice’s mailing date (VC 22427(a)). If the review is denied, you have 21 calendar days to request an administrative hearing before an independent examiner, in writing, by video, or in person; you usually must pay the penalty first unless you show you cannot pay. After the hearing, you can appeal to the superior court within 30 days (VC 22428).
