Is it just me or am I crazy to think that speeding cameras and light cameras just seem unfair and money driven?

Well of course they are unfair but at the same time if you drive the limit then you have nothing to worry about. I also think it's nothing else but about money and just another way to get money from people.

yep those camera's should have to obey the law like everyone else

Did you hear about Columbus' cameras in the downtown. The cameras are for stop lights. If you run a red light and don't stop then you get a ticket. Now here is the kicker ... When you come to the intersection and you have red then you come to a complete stop at the large white line. Now lets say you stop a little past the line ... you get a ticket. Lets say you role forward to make a turn to the right and you stop ahead of the line... you get a ticket. So basically your getting a ticket for not stopping your vehicle even though your stopping your vehicle. Believe these cameras are getting a little out of control.

the law says

stop at white line

if no white line stop at crosswalk

if there is no white line nor cross walk stop at
point of intersection of other road

the white line is there for a reason

if you are making a right turn and stop at the white line first
then you should not get the ticket unless there is a no
turn on red sign

but you should not set past the white line to do so

the whit line is there to keep the intersection clear so
that larger vehicles (such as semis) have enough room
to make the turn onto the intersecting road

In a lot of places the issue of these cameras has become such an issue that as soon as you dispute, it gets thrown out. If it comes right down to it a lot of places are finding that the cameras are costing more than they make. I once receive a bill for traveling the 407 bypass around Toronto which uses cameras to Identify plates, and then they bill you. I was at work here in Ohio when they say I used the 407.

It's just all about big brother, and another way for him to infringe into our lives. Time for another Tea Party...
