PSA: Rt. 29 / Jermantown Road Intersection - Red Light Camera
Posted by: In The Know 4 You ()

Just a PSA for all that drive through Fairfax each day. There's a red light camera at the corner of Rt. 29 (Lee Highway) and Jermantown Road. Actually, the red light also serves to monitor right turns onto Jermantown Road from Rt. 29 when heading south on Rt. 29. When you're turning right on Jermantown Road and the light is red, come to a COMPLETE stop. Or, the camera will nab you because it will record your speed as you're making the corner. The cost: $70+ for the fine.

I remember when a former administration banned all the red light cameras in VA. The democraps must be running out of "someone elses money" already. Expect the rebuilt Rt 7 and other main roads to become toll roads soon.

I went through that camera on my way to Arby’s recently. Luckily, the light was green so I didn’t get a fine.

Take a "brake" and snag a taco from Tippy's which is right there in Jermantown Square :) - no need to run that light!

Tippy's is gone from Jermantown. Probably 4 or 5 years now.

The really nice lady sold it, and it was closed soon after. Sad.

Almost as much as it loses when folks avoid fx city because of traffic congestion, never ending construction, and big brother traffic cameras.

just look at all the restaurants and businesses closing.

It's just revenue. It is how I am employed.

The faster they close the sooner the next wave can take over.

This is a suburban to urban transition in the works you ignorant fuckstick.

When I was younger the county put a contraption on the light closest to our house. It was amazing, and I remember the first time I saw it. I was on my way to Little Ceaser’s where I had a pepperoni and mushroom pizza.
