Camera Summary
3 speed cameras
2 red light cameras
0 bus lane cameras
Staten Island has the lowest camera density of any borough, with enforcement concentrated almost entirely on school-zone speed cameras along the major commercial corridors. There are no bus-lane cameras and very few red-light cameras, which makes Staten Island the lowest per-mile camera risk for delivery fleets — but the school-zone speed cameras that do exist catch a disproportionate share of commercial vehicle tickets.

Route Strategy for Staten Island
Staten Island's camera enforcement clusters along Hylan Boulevard, Victory Boulevard, Richmond Avenue, and the approaches to the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. Hylan Boulevard in particular runs most of the length of the borough's east coast and passes through multiple school zones in New Dorp, Tottenville, and the residential neighborhoods south of the expressway. The 6 AM to 10 PM school-day speed camera enforcement window covers essentially all daytime delivery runs down Hylan.
Victory Boulevard, running east-west through the center of the borough from St. George to the West Shore, is the other major speed-camera corridor. It passes through several school zones in the residential neighborhoods of the North Shore and catches delivery vehicles making early-morning grocery and package runs.
Because Staten Island has no dedicated bus-lane cameras, fleet operators don't need to worry about bus-lane rules on the borough's main commercial streets. The absence of bus-lane enforcement also means that delivery vehicles can generally use the right lane of major corridors without the camera risk that exists in the other four boroughs. The main exposure is speed — specifically, staying under the 25 mph residential speed limit through the school zones on the main arterials.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Staten Island have bus-lane cameras?
No. Staten Island currently has no dedicated bus-lane cameras. The borough's limited bus network and lower traffic density haven't justified the bus-lane-camera deployment that exists in the other four boroughs. This means delivery vehicles can use right lanes on major corridors without bus-lane camera risk — though normal traffic rules still apply.
Where are the speed cameras on Hylan Boulevard?
Hylan Boulevard has speed cameras clustered in the school zones of New Dorp, Great Kills, Eltingville, and Tottenville — the residential segments where the road passes elementary and middle schools. The 6 AM to 10 PM school-day window catches most commercial delivery runs. Overnight deliveries between 10 PM and 6 AM on weeknights are outside the enforcement window.
Is Staten Island lower risk for fleet camera tickets?
Per mile driven, yes — Staten Island has the fewest cameras of any borough. However, fleet vehicles that do hit Staten Island speed cameras often do so repeatedly, because the cameras are on straightaways where drivers naturally build speed, and a single driver may pass the same camera multiple times in a shift. Clear Plates highlights any vehicle that hits the same Staten Island speed camera more than twice in a month so you can intervene with the specific driver.
What this means for commercial fleets
Staten Island is the lowest-risk borough for camera tickets per mile driven, but fleets running long routes on Hylan Boulevard, Victory Boulevard, or the North Shore residential streets still pick up speed camera tickets regularly. The absence of bus-lane cameras makes Staten Island fundamentally easier to route through than the other four boroughs — the only real risk is school-zone speeding, which is manageable with driver briefings and route timing.
