The busiest red-light camera in New Jersey is in Cherry Hill.

That's the finding of an analysis by the Star Ledger of the biggest money making red-light cameras in the Garden State.

And not only is the red-light camera at Springdale Road East and Route 70 No. 1, the only other South Jersey camera on the top 10 "meanest" list is the one for Springdale Road West and Route 70, the newspaper said.

Together, the two were responsible for 18,175 citations during the first 10 months of this year, the Star Ledger reported. At $85 a pop, the comes to more than $1.5 million in fines.

Tickets are not issued for just getting caught in the intersection when the light turns red, but also for failing to come to a complete stop before making a right turn on red.

You have been warned.
