Blue Line Solutions Expands Into North Carolina With a Commitment to Safer Roads

North Carolina is opening a new chapter in traffic safety and Blue Line Solutions is proud to be part of it.

Senate Bill 391

In October 2025, North Carolina Senate Bill 391 was passed permitting the use of Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) solutions in school zones across teh state. This was a first for the state in allowing automonous LiDAR cameras in school zones to issue civil penalties to the driver of vehicles speeding in school zones on school days, during school hours, when the school zone beacons are actively flashing in the morning for drop off and afternoon for pick up.

All penalties are civil penalties meaning there are no insurance or license penalties if someone recieves a citation, only a fine. These paid fines are then used to pay for the infrastructure of the ASE in the school zones. Once that is paid for, the future fines are used for school board needs, taking a serous danger in a school zone and turning it into a positive for those same students.

As communities across the state look for more effective, transparent, and equitable ways to address dangerous driving behavior, Blue Line Solutions is bringing proven experience and data driven solutions to support that mission. Our newest video highlights what sets us apart in this new market and why agencies nationwide continue to trust us as their traffic safety partner.

A Growing Need for Smarter Safety Solutions

‍North Carolina joins a growing list of states seeking innovative approaches to reducing crashes, protecting pedestrians, and improving driver accountability. With expanding school zones, high volume work zones, and high injury networks that demand focused attention, agencies need solutions that are accurate, fair, and built on real-world data. Blue Line Solutions enters this market ready to help communities address these challenges with technology designed to support enforcement, not replace it.

In North Carolina, according to the Collaborative Sciences Center for Road Safety, 170 child pedestrians were killed on North Carolina roads in the last decade, raking the state 9th in the nation.

There were 15,139 speed-related crashes in North Carolina in 2023 as reported by the North Carolina Department of Transit.

Tragically, 50 children under the age of 12 years old were fatally killed in vehicle crashes in the last decade according to a study conducted by the University of North Carolina.

Nationwide, National Highway Traffic Safety Association reports that 64% of child pedestrians killed in traffic crashes occur on weekdays between 6AM and 6PM.

Additionally AAA reports the there is a 10% survival rate of child being struck by a vehicle traveling at 40 MPH.

Finally, Safe Kids Worldwide reports a 13% increase in pedestrian death rates in 12-19 year olds since 2013.

What Sets Blue Line Solutions Apart

‍Our approach is rooted in public safety expertise and shaped by the realities agencies face every day. Founded by law enforcement professionals, Blue Line Solutions understands that effective traffic safety requires more than technology alone. It requires community trust, operational transparency, and solutions that adapt to local needs. From automated speed enforcement to vehicle based and handheld solutions, our programs are designed to deliver measurable safety outcomes while maintaining fairness and accountability.

A Partnership Built on Trust and Data

‍In every community we serve, our work begins with data. Speed studies, safety assessments, and ongoing performance reporting help agencies understand risk and track progress. That same commitment carries into North Carolina as we partner with law enforcement leaders and local governments to build programs that reflect each community’s priorities. The goal is simple. Reduce dangerous behavior, protect lives, and help communities move closer to Vision Zero.

Looking Ahead in North Carolina

‍Entering a competitive new market is not just about growth. It is about impact. Blue Line Solutions is excited to bring its experience, technology, and people to North Carolina and work alongside agencies that share our commitment to safer streets for everyone. This new chapter represents an opportunity to strengthen partnerships, elevate traffic safety standards, and make a lasting difference in the communities we serve.
