they just installed red light cameras w/ photo radar in many intersection around the city here. which means you can get a ticket for speeding through a green light, a ticket for running a red light, AND if your speeding when you run the red you will get dinged for BOTH.
Its ridiculous!

I tell you man, I do not advocate running red lights or speeding through town, BUT, those damn camera's are too precise and unforgiving. I got one in NYCity and only about 1/3 of the rear of the car was over the white line on the opposite side. I mean come on, so now I JAM on the brakes at yellow.
It is getting to the point where if they are going to put speeding camera's everywhere, they might as well govern all the cars so they can only go up to 65, and be done with it.
I want to see a camera to catch the following:
- Slow drivers in the left lane
- people that pull out in front of you WITHOUT JUDGING THE SPEED you are going!
- People that do not know how to enter or exit the highway without effecting others
- A Holes that use the emergency lane in bumper to bumper traffic because they do not feel like waiting!
- People that are actually afraid of the car they are driving and it shows
- people that sit too close to the steering wheel, that will someday have an airbag for lungs
Sorry.....End Rant!
