LetsDriveSafer

Traffic Safety & Stop Sign Enforcement Program

About the Program 

Fairmount Heights is launching the #LetsDriveSafer program to reduce dangerous driving near schools and protect our most vulnerable residents. 

Prince George’s County faces some of the highest traffic safety challenges in the state — with 91 traffic deaths last year alone. In our own town, our recent pilot showed over 500 vehicles run stop signs every day, many during school hours. See letsdrivesafer.com/fairmount-heights to see more. 

With a shortage of crossing guards and rising risk near schools, we need a smarter, more proactive solution. #LetsDriveSafer uses automated stop sign cameras, clear signage, and community education to hold drivers accountable and make our roads safer for everyone.

 If You’ve Received a Citation 

If you've received a citation, it means your vehicle, registered or leased to you, was detected by our automated enforcement system failing to make a complete stop at a designated stop sign intersection. These citations are not "moving violations" but civil citations, similar to parking tickets, holding the registered owner or lessee responsible. 

 PAYMENT OPTIONS: Payment is an admission of guilt/liability; however, this violation will not affect your driving record, and no points will be assessed.

Sign onto your citation and follow the instructions to make a payment. You may pay using all major credit cards (VISA/MC/Discover). Please have your citation number ready.
