Maybe an INCREDIBLY INSANE and ABSURD idea such as red light cameras and speed cameras should be illegal at the federal level.

They caused an accident for me. So ####ing concerned about that mother ####ing ticket that i stopped short at the yellow (they turn FAST in NY) and even though there still should have been plenty of time for her to stop, a woman rammed me with her truck. Incredibly, very little damage. Just a tail light.

Big Brother can go #### himself.

The city of Newark, NJ had a bunch of red-light cameras installed as part of a pilot project. They shut them off after the review period was completed. I don't remember the exact explanation for it, but they were political hot potatoes all over the state in towns that installed them.

In Newark there was one comical episode that probably spelled the doom of the program. There were hundreds of motorists who received summonses for red-light infractions in a two-hour period after an NHL game at the Prudential Center. These motorists were all driving through a red light because they were being directed to do so by a police officer who was in the intersection directing traffic after the game.

The story probably wouldn't have made headlines, except that one of the victims was a state legislature or his/her spouse. LOL.
