    Keeping cameras that record your license plate as you travel through intersections should be fucking outlawed, I don’t care how much speeding they stop.

    I don’t care how much companies and municipalities claim they don’t record info on non-speeders, until your entire system is FLOSS and goes through regular 3rd party audits, that shit isn’t to be trusted.

      They don’t stop speeding just like harsher penalties don’t stop most kinds of crime

      If you want people to slow down, you paint the lanes smaller, make them narrow regularly, add roundabouts and plastic bollards between the lanes - you have to actually address the problem, which is the speed people feel natural driving at on any given road

      The ones you can go after are the people weaving between traffic and racing, but I doubt a letter in the mail is going to do much
