Gov. Abbott signs bill banning red light cameras in Texas

With a swipe of his pen, Gov. Greg Abbott signed a bill Saturday that bans red light cameras in Texas into law.

In a video posted to Twitter, Abbott gave people a close-up look at the last step a bill needs to become law: his signature.

“Hi, Governor Greg Abbott here at the capitol on Saturday, signing bills,” he said.

And just a few seconds later, Abbott held up the bill with his signature as proof. With that, the bill, “is now law,” Abbott proclaimed.
