Hey all, I wasnt much into the conspiracy scene when they first started using Red Light cameras, so I dont know if there was much debate about them. But the other day I was on a Four lane Hwy, that has the opposite coming traffic seperated by a median.
When I stopped at the stop light and looked up. The camera was facing directly at the front of the cars at the light. If a car runs that light, there is no way the camera could get the license plate. So why are they there? I started looking after that. And they are all like that. except at four ways without a median.
I thought these cameras were specificlly meant to catch traffic violations?
