INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — At the I-465 and I-69 interchange on the northeast side of Indianapolis, cameras caught 25,000 drivers speeding in May in what the Indiana Department of Transportation calls a safe zone.
In a Friday news conference at Orr Plaza in downtown Indianapolis, INDOT spokesperson Natalie Garrett, said, “Overall, we are seeing people slowing down through this work zone. In late May, we did see instances of excessive speed down about 75%, which is pretty significant.”
INDOT said speeders could get tickets soon. After a warning letting, the ticket becomes $75. Every ticket after that will be $150 every time a motorist gets caught.
I-Team 8 on Friday put a GoPro camera on the side of a WISH-TV news car and drove through the safe zone to see if motorists were speeding. Time aft
