Missouri Supreme Court Strikes Down Red-Light Camera Laws

The Missouri Supreme Court struck down red-light camera laws in St. Louis, Kansas City and St. Peters, The Wall Street Journal's Jacob Gershman reports. The law in St. Louis was struck down because it shifted the burden onto a defendant to prove that he or she wasn't operating the motor vehicle at the time of the violation.

The ordinances authorizing red-light camera violations in the other cities were struck down for other reasons.
