Cheverly has replaced speed cameras provided by Lanham-based Optotraffic with new cameras run by a different company.

Police in Red Bank, Tenn., caught four suspects in a violent home invasion by reviewing images from a red-light camera near the victims' home. Four suspects tied up two victims and then ransacked the house, police say; one robber allegedly smashed his boot into a victim's face.
Salisbury leaps towards School-zone Speed Enforcement
In March 2010, a study conducted at Wicomico Middle School by the SPD showed that within a seven-day period, more than 6,800 vehicles in that area were recorded traveling 12 or more miles per hour over the speed limit.
Col. Ivan Barkley of the Salisbury Police Department said the locations were selected based on pedestrian traffic and complaints regarding speeding near schools.
Results showed the number of vehicles each day traveling 12 or more miles per hour above the posted speed limits between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. ranged from 2,914 on College Avenue to 73 on Spring Avenue.
