It’s all going to get worse as technology “advances”. Government is absolutely devious and adaptable to use it to stick it to the people.
Jefferson Parish La is proposing the installation of Crime Cameras. Whatever that is.
So, first speed, then red light, and now crime cameras.
Great point as I’ve been saying for the last few years that technology is being used against the populace. To fleece us, control is.
Anyone ever sit in your vehicle at an intersection and NO cars are moving from any direction? Happens to me literally, in the truest sense of the word, all the time.
Why does this happen? It’s often that a driver had an arrow for a left turn, or, a car approached an intersection with a single lane and turned right on red, but tripped the light to cycle through to the next cycle where that car that turned right on red gets a green light-even though the car that tripped the green light is long gone! And that was the only car coming from that direction!
This is only one scenario where NO cars are moving at an intersection. There are many others.
The technology exists that could rectify these traffic nightmares. Using simple infra red technology traffic lights could easily be programmed to cycle through to the next sequence the traffic lights go through when there is OBVIOUSLY nothing moving from any direction. It’s very dooable. Think of the savings in fuel and money! Come on!
But alas, government is a bloated carcass of what it once was. Sorry to be so cynical.
