Like the DPD data that formed the foundation of our recent post about Denver's biggest speed traps in 2017 to date (which followed a report about the ten Denver intersections with the most accidents in the first months of the year), the information about red-light tickets excluding photo radar is unsorted and difficult to accurately calculate because the entries are wildly inconsistent in terms of style, spelling and plenty more. But at least there aren't nearly as many red-light citations in the document below — 297 between January 1 and March 6 — as speeding violations, which topped 4,500 over that span.
By the way, more than 20,000 red-light photo-radar tickets were dispensed in Denver during 2015 alone.
Continue to see ten of the intersections with the most in-person red-light tickets, including one (Park Avenue and Globeville) that also is on our speed trap roster. The figures offer a rationale for putting an extra focus on safety in these spots, in order to avoid either collecting a citation or putting yourself in unnecessary danger from red-light scofflaws whether you're driving, cycling or walking.
