I once read an article about some upity neighborhoods wanting cameras because they did not like having police cars "prancing" through thier community.

This article raises a good point, it is concievable that cameras at intersections will result in less of a police presence which may not entirely be a bad thing.

Um, yeah, OK...

Of course, you are forgetting that these images are likely being taped and can be reviewed by "the authorities" at their leisure.

In Maryland, there has been a significant increase in traffic accidents at intersections so equipped.

(when the light turns yellow, people now slam on their brakes no matter how close they are to the intersection)

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.
