Is the citation valid if it was not issued by a uniformed police officer?
Yes. These violations will be reviewed and authorized by sworn officers of the Villa Park Police Department. Each reviewing officer will be specifically trained in the operation and review process of the Red Light Photo Enforcement Program. These tickets are treated as a civil violation (just like a parking ticket) and will not impact the registered owner's driving record or insurance rates.
