Automated Enforcement Camera Technician

Clerical Associate Level IVs (Camera Technicians) in the Automated Enforcement Unit are responsible for reviewing, accepting, or rejecting traffic violations (Notice of Liability) issued to motorists for infractions of the NYC Traffic Rules and Regulations which are captured through an automated camera enforcement system. The Camera Technician reviews the red-light camera, bus lane camera, MTA bus-mounted camera, fixed speed camera, as well as mobile speed camera, and proposed violations on their desktop computer. It is the Camera Technician’s responsibility to determine if a violation has occurred. Using the preset guidelines, the Camera Technician reviews the Notice of Liability to ascertain that the vehicle has in fact violated the traffic law, that the vehicle’s description is accurate, and that the license plate is clear and legible and is assigned to the registered owner of the vehicle. In addition, the Camera Technician will review bus lane videos to determine that the vehicle in violation was in fact illegally using the bus lane or simply dropping off or picking up a passenger within a reasonable amount of time. The technician reviews the printed Notices of Liability (NOLs) for quality assurance. In addition, the Camera Technician is responsible for the accuracy of their reviewed NOLs and will be subject to random quality assurance tests while performing their tasks. The Camera Technician will follow all procedures and guidelines, standard operating procedures, and business rules as set forth by the Automated Enforcement Unit as well as all policies set forth by the Department of Transportation.
