(does not reflect my opinion, just thought it looked funny)

Less hostile when in context.

    Who needs cops? I believe CA passed a bill to trial automatic enforcement of this issue last year. Detects excessive noise and photographs the license plates just like speed cameras.

    I’m waiting to see where they will trial it. I haven’t heard anything recently.

      Agreed. Take 90+% of their funding, and use it for preventative measures instead.

            This article says the opposite though.

            Therefore, federal courts have affirmed the right of municipalities to use speeding and red light cameras. Additionally, lawsuits challenging the use of private companies to operate red light cameras have been dismissed or defeated.

            I am not a lawyer and I have wondered about the constitutional questions of these. But according to this the courts have largely allowed them.
