Assembly Bill 645 would allow San Jose to install speed camera systems in school zones, priority safety corridors and areas with a history of street racing or sideshows with the goal to save lives. On Dia de las Madres, San Jose's Maria Hernandez won't be able to celebrate her mother Maria Marcelo., the community activist's life was taken in a deadly car crash. Now, her daughter is calling for safer city streets.

"When it's not just one fatality, when it's multiple on that same street - if that's not screaming for a change, I don't know what is." On Wednesday, Mayor Matt Mahan and city leaders voiced their support for what they say is a step towards that change.
