I'm not against red light cameras. In fact, I think they're a good idea. What could be bad about reducing thousands of accidents a year? In the eyes of Dallas officials eyes, reducing millions of dollars in fine revenue a year.
"Faced with data showing that drivers pay attention to cameras at intersections — resulting in fewer ticketable violations and ever-shrinking revenue from fines — municipalities across the country are reconsidering red light cameras, which often work too well." http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23710970 Just goes to show how the world is driven by the bottom line. -------------------- |

its funny theres a post about this. I heard today that alot of them dont even work they are just there to intimidate drivers. well thats in our area atleast. Also, alot of people think theres a camera at intersections but really its a camera used to detect the motion of a car approaching
