It’s insane the lengths that some people will go to save a few seconds on their commute, while also endangering others.

    If traffic cameras worked to prevent traffic violations they wouldn’t be revenue streams. People would just rationally follow the traffic laws to avoid consequences. Yet, in the real world, we know it will only slow down the people who think about consequences.

      They can be both lol. Prevent traffic violations for the people that care about the consequences, and a revenue stream from people that don’t.

      Better than nothing.
