HONOLULU -- The state Department of Transportation's new traffic enforcement program isn't being fully implemented just yet -- with good reason.

Department officials said a software glitch kept its photo speed-detection system (pictured, right) from properly working during its first three days of operation. The problem kept a large number of speeders who were caught on camera from being sent warning citations.

Between Dec. 3 and Dec. 5, officials said that about 30 percent of more than 8,600 vehicles captured on camera by the system were speeding. However, because of the glitch, only 334 of them were being cited.

The Transportation Department said the glitch has since been corrected.

The photo enforcement speed vans were stationed on Pali Highway, Likelike Highway, Nimitz Highway and Kalanianaole Highway near Sandy Beach during those days.

Speeding Enforcement Highways:

Farrington Highway

Fort Weaver Road

H-1 Freeway

H-2 Freeway

H-3 Freeway

Kahekili Highway

Kalanianaole Highway

Kamehameha Highway, Route 83

Kamehameha Highway, Route 99

Kaneohe Bay Drive

Kunia Road

Likelike Highway

Moanalua Freeway

Nimitz Highway

Pali Highway

The department will continue to send warning citations until at least Dec. 17. After the bugs are worked out of the system, regular citations with fines will be issued.

The red-light enforcement portion of the program should kick off once the cameras at intersections can be connected to the city's traffic-signal system.
