            House Bill 1052 amends the Transportation Code to require a municipality to place warning signs at least 100 feet before an intersection indicating that a photographic traffic monitoring system is used at that intersection to enforce compliance with a traffic-control signal.  A municipality that fails to place such a warning sign may not impose a penalty against a person for failure to comply with the instructions of a traffic-control signal at the applicable intersection.  The bill does not prohibit a police officer from arresting or issuing a citation to a person whom the officer observes to have failed to comply.
