Kpix 5 reporter anne makovec is live in San Francisco to tell us what the plans are. Reporter these speed cameras have reduced traffic fatalities in other cities across the country so thats the goal here in San Francisco. This would be a Pilot Program in San Francisco and san jose but state law would need to change for it to go through. The cameras would catch any vehicle traveling 10 miles an hour over the posted speed limit. The cars owner would be mailed a ticket. It wouldnt be more than 100. And there would be no points against a drives record. The zones would be clearly marked. The drivers know the risks. And supporters say its been a long time coming. How ironic here in the heart of silicon valley, because the laws of the state of california do not allow to us utilize this very critical technology. Reporter the criticism, that this is a hightech speed trap. Another is that the cameras target a cars license plate not the driver. The owner is on the hook no matter who is driving. Thats similar to the red light cameras that we already have around the state. So again this would be a five year Trial Program and after that it could be expanded beyond the cities of San Francisco and san jose, statewide. But it has to first make it through the mtc today and then eventually the state legislature. Live in San Francisco, anne makevoc, kpix 5. President trumps pick for the Supreme Court faces more questions on capitol hill today. Yesterday judge neil gorsuch told lawmakers that he leaves his personal views at home when he is on the bench.

Theres a lot of fear and frustration building up right now in Contra Costa County over the sheriffs close ties to u. S. Immigration Customs Enforcement or i. C. E. As we know with all the controversy surrounded immigration issues in our country, many city leaders in the bay area have come out and announced that their cities will be sanctuary cities. But in Contra Costa County, they are not sure where their leaders stand and that includes sheriff david livingston. He recently visited washington, dc to meet with then senator Jeff Sessions now u. S. Attorney general. Many people including a member of the Richmond City council didnt think that was a good idea. If he truly does disagree with Jeff Sessions, then he would be advocating to say no we should not be working together with i. C. E. But instead, the sheriff has a continuing contract with i. C. E. Today. In a statement, sheriff livingston says he regularly meets with politicians on both sides of the aisle and that his meeting with mr. Sessions was neither a political meeting nor an endorsement. Todays rally will be at noon in martinez at the sheriffs headquarters in tandem with a protest against the Los Angeles County sheriffs office. Thank you.
