There were more crashes since red-light cameras were installed at dozens of Jacksonville intersections, but Sheriff John Rutherford said there were fewer side-impact crashes, and those are usually more dangerous.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office crime analysis unit compared the 544 days before the cameras were installed to the 544 days after drivers started getting citations and found there were 24 more crashes overall at those intersections across the city.

Despite the increase, Rutherford believes Jacksonville's roads are safer with nearly 40 cameras watching 25 different intersections.
