The resolution SCR1002 seeks to prohibit local authorities and state agencies in Arizona from utilizing photo enforcement systems for identifying traffic violations, pending voter approval. This initiative aims to replace automated traffic enforcement with traditional methods, thereby repealing existing laws related to the use and management of photo enforcement systems. The resolution also broadens the definition of these systems to encompass devices that identify violations of local ordinances regarding speed and traffic control compliance.

Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes the importance of maintaining law enforcement responsibilities within trained personnel rather than delegating them to private entities, which could lead to potential abuses and a focus on revenue generation over public safety. If the electorate approves the measure during the next general election, it will take effect following the Governor's proclamation. The Secretary of State is responsible for presenting this proposition to voters, and the resolution is not expected to have any fiscal impact on the state General Fund.
