See my post at #8 about the use of those by the State of Maryland.

I will differ, I don’t agree with the use of them under ANY circumstances.

In my opinion, we pay the cops to do that, not sit in their cars by the side of the road near construction sites looking at their laps or chatting with friends. At time and a half (or more on off hours, weekends, or holidays) they should earn that money, not delegate it to cameras which are abused as a revenue gathering device.

Of course, in liberal states like mine and Maryland, they have scandals where the overtime systems (even as exorbitantly and lavishly extravagant as those overtime processes are) are abused by police to even further fleece the taxpayers. They just had a huge scandal about it in my state, which is no surprise.

Boy, I am still pissed about that ticket.

These signs are in all construction zones here in Texas.

As they should be.
