Despite safety concerns that some police officers have raised about changing the definition of intersections in Arizona, traffic engineers from the state’s two largest metro areas said small changes to traffic light timing should address at least some of those concerns.

The House on Wednesday passed a bill that aims to redefine what constitutes an intersection, despite warnings by police that the change will lead to more traffic fatalities.

The new definition would give would-be red-light runners extra time to get through an intersection without breaking the law.

Photo enforcement may be gone from Arizona highways, but its revenue is not forgotten.
