The safety argument is disingenuous, because the equipment suppliers tout the revenue as the main benefit. And, it's been reported that some cities (e.g. Dallas, TX) are uninstalling the cameras, because drivers have caught on and fine revenue as consequently gone down!<br />I would think some legal eagles might look into the equal protection implications here. Why does a driver who is nailed by a cop get a violation that goes on hi driving record, while a driver who is nailed by a camera only gets an infraction that is not reported?<br />As for a car committing a moving violation--so goes the logic about holding the owner, rather than a driver, responsible, that's just insane. I support state legislation to prohibit local jurisdictions from installing these little monsters.Franz W. Gregorynoreply@blogger.com
