Starting Wednesday, Aventura will give drivers 90 days to get adjusted to the city's new automated ticketing system for red-light runners. During the warning period, which will run through Oct. 10, mounted cameras will capture images and video of red-light violations, and warning notices will be sent to the vehicle owners. The camera takes two pictures, one in the front of the light and when the vehicle is crossing the intersection. Video footage will be available online.
