This story is part of our ongoing series on the city’s new speed cameras. Follow along at LBPost.com/speedcameras. How many warnings have Long Beach’s speed cameras issued since Oct. 7? Well, that’s what we want to know too. We’ve been asking the Public Works Department for that data since Oct. 27. A spokesperson told us they would release the number of warnings at the 30-day mark, which passed on Friday, Nov. 6. Still no word. Conversely, some individual drivers haven’t been shy about sharing their warnings on social media. One man posted a video to Instagram showing three he received over two days in early October while driving along Pacific Avenue near 23rd Street. One of the warnings showed he was traveling 52 mph in a 25 mph zone. Although we don’t have a full picture of local data yet, other cities might give us a hint of what’s to come. In San Francisco, the numbers have been staggering. Link Under the same pilot program, San Francisco began sending warnings in March 2025.
