Key takeaway Further details about the refund process and the circumstances surrounding the LIDAR system's illegality are available from local news sources, including KSAT 12.
In Bexar County, some drivers who received traffic citations for speeding will be refunded. This decision comes after Bexar County commissioners voted to issue refunds to those who were cited using a certain method. The method in question is a Light Detection and Ranging system, also known as LIDAR.
This system was used to issue citations to drivers, but it is now considered illegal. As a result, 57 people who paid fines will be getting their money back. Further details about the refund process and the circumstances surrounding the LIDAR system's illegality are available from local news sources, including KSAT 12.
