When the Chattanooga Times Free Press set out to learn what drives Blue Line Solutions’ success, the answer was simple-safety comes first.

Founded by Mark Hutchinson, a former East Tennessee deputy sheriff who witnessed firsthand the consequences of dangerous driving, Blue Line Solutions was built on a mission to prevent tragedies before they happen. Today, that mission has grown into a nationwide safety movement, with hundreds of automated enforcement programs operating in 11 states and expanding.

A Chattanooga Company Built on Service

Headquartered right here in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Blue Line Solutions began in 2010 with just two employees and a clear vision: leverage technology to protect communities through transparency and accountability.

Since relocating from Athens, TN in 2017, the company has grown to more than 100employees, including retired law enforcement officers, paramedics, and fire fighters who share a passion for public safety.

“I don’t have to instill the mission in their heart,” said Hutchinson. “They’ve seen what happens when safety fails.”

That shared commitment is what sets Blue Line apart from profit-driven enforcement firms. As Hutchinson explained in the article,“We’re not in this for the money-we’re in it to make communities safer.”

Measurable Results. Real Impact.

Across more than 800 cameras nationwide, Blue Line Solutions’ programs have achieved an average 94% reduction in speeding.

• Soddy-Daisy, TN: School zone speeding dropped by85% after implementation.
• Hollywood, FL: Reported a35% reduction in crashes following deployment.
• Everywhere Blue Line operates: Safety improves, and citations drop—the ultimate sign of success.

When enforcement is paired with public education and transparent communication, communities see lasting results. That’s the foundation of every Blue Line partnership—from program launch through daily operation.

A Mission Rooted in Ethics and Accountability

Unlike many private equity-owned competitors, Blue Line Solutions has remained independently owned to protect its mission-driven approach.

• 50/50 revenue splits ensure fairness and transparency.
• Law enforcement retains control of every citation decision.
• Cameras are shut off automatically if they fail calibration or compliance.

During the pandemic, when others downsized, Blue Line executives went without pay to protect every employee-proof that integrity drives every decision, both in business and safety.

Local Roots. National Reach.

As new photo enforcement legislation passes in states like North Carolina and expansion grows across Tennessee and Florida, Blue Line’s focus remains the same:

Protect every school zone, every work zone, every time.

Founded in Tennessee. Growing across America. Led by those who’ve worn the badge and those understand what’s at stake, always prioritizing safety above all else.
