We had speed cameras set up here for a while that were run by a third party. I was 'caught' going 10km/hr over the speed limit as I exited the last 50 feet of a school zone going downhill. It was this type of trolling for violations that got the entire program scrapped. In some warehouse there are a few million dollars worth of speed cameras laying in a corner.As I’ve undoubtedly observed before, I would welcome much more stringent traffic code enforcement around here. Traffic fatalities have been ticking up (after being on a downward trend for decades) and street racing has become a popular pastime. We are not powerless to address this. It just takes the willingness to do it.
I never did pay the fine and all $$ owed was waived when the program scrapped. We do still have intersection cams for red light runners.
