Bellevue Speed Cameras Under Attack | Spokane News

Bellevue just installed eight new speed cameras as part of its Vision Zero push—but half are already vandalized, with two on 148th Ave NE smashed and spray-painted, and two more on Forest Dr SE just spray-painted. Verra Mobility is handling repairs; one Forest Drive camera’s back online, others still being fixed. While nationwide vandalism targets similar cameras, Bellevue insists these aren’t the controversial Flock units—they simply capture license plates for speeding. Police are patrolling and asking drivers to report suspicious activity. Warnings are currently in effect, but starting mid-September, tickets will begin—$248 in school zones, $124 elsewhere—and six more cameras are coming by end of September.
