I'm definitely in the minority here. I agree with the cameras especially the red light cams. Drivers either adjust or are completely clueless when it comes to different yellow light timing. It doesn't help when every locale seems to have different timing sequences regarding stop light cycles. I see too many people blasting through red lights to ever feel safe entering an intersection on a "fresh" green

Speed cameras here are set up to catch offenders going 10+MPH over the posted speed limit. I'm sorry but if you can't tell the difference between 55 and 45 you probably shouldn't be driving.

The big beef I have with the camera system here is the fact they are only enforceable with in-state vehicle owners. Out of state/country vehicle owners get a free pass as they have no way to enforce the fines.


Hmmm, maybe particle beams instead of camera? No, road runners with frickin' laser beams! THAT'S the ticket!
