If they ticketed a car going through the red 2 seconds or more after it turned red I’d be all for it. Unfortunately they turn the grace period down to one or two **tenths** of a second so they can suck a little cash of anyone who barely misses the yellow or gets stuck under the light turning left.

I’ll put it this way.

Right now the cameras are going up for free. That means **I** do not have to pay for them. I don’t run red lights. I don’t fucking go into the city unless I absolutely have to. The people who are paying for them are the people who should be. The people going through a red light. Maybe if people were a little more cautious about running red lights to begin with we wouldn’t have this problem? A yellow light means **prepare to stop** … not floor it. I can’t believe how many of you are bitching about people rear-ending you. **Isn’t the speed limit in the city like 30-35mph? lol. OMG… you’re so DEAD!!!** Everyone is going to get into accidents now because people actually have to stop for a red light. Even if there was a crosswalk, the accident would be over before anyone even entered the road. Rear end collisions went up 80%?? Good. I hope all of the people who rear ended someone are finally getting what has been coming to them since the day they started running red lights.

Sounds like a bunch of whiney bitches complaining because they have to wait a couple minutes at a red light.

Think of the other option for revenue. More speed traps. Don’t ya think that would piss you off more? It’d cause more accidents too. :burnout:

BTW - Have you seen my truck? haha… I feel sorry for anything that rear-ends me with or without red light cameras.
