The latest speed photo enforcement device.

no. the camera is not the gubment. there's a reason all the speed cameras here were removed and it's not because you're right and I'm wrong

Sure you have the right to fight these tickets. Problem is, it's like British Common Law, where you are guilty til proven innocent. They have a lawyer who reads something that takes the wind out your sails, so you are s.o.l.

Exactly. And the camera is not the accuser. The reason they are being removed and or not used in certain places is because of the cost/benefit and the fact that those passing the laws can't show their ID's or "family member" badges to a camera to get out of the ticket.

actually, the cost/benefit is the MAIN reason localities run these. The cost of the equipment is subsidized by the manufacturers (Lockheed Martin is the big player)....the proceeds are divied up on a revenue share model. Win/win for Lockheed and the local gubment, bad for end users. There's a reason it's not considered a moving violation most places - it doesn't affect your insurance, so it's cheaper to pay the fine than it is to take time off work and fight it.

They can justify the cost by claiming it saves lives, even if it cost a million bucks.
LynnEl: sounds like "fatal injury", which of course is PC for "killed."

US officials try faux speed bumps to slow drivers
...It was a fake speed bump, a flat piece of blue, white and orange plastic that is designed to look like a 3-D pyramid from afar when applied to the pavement.
The optical illusion is one of the latest innovations being tested around the country to discourage speeding. ...
What, are we stupid?

VIDEO: Santas Disable Enforcement Cameras in Tempe
TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) _ A group of Santa impersonators are on the naughty list of Arizona law enforcement officials.
...
``Ho Ho Ho! Death to the surveillance state! Free movement for all people!''
The group that posted the video also wrote ``lumps of coal to all of those who make it their business to watch and control.''
This gets me in the spirit.

We have 25 of these cameras in Albuquerque. Here's a link about our program: http://www.cabq.gov/police/redlight/
Check out the videos if you get a chance.
