Wow...guess there is a first time to hear everything.
We learned lessons like "stay right except to pass, maintain safe following distance, never pass a school bus with illuminated flashers" and similar.
Your relative must have missed Driver's Education class that day! :-)

Until a malfunction in the system INCORRECTLY sends you a $1000 ticket plus $100 late-payment fees.

The second part of the scheme is for every dollar generated by this method, a dollar is removed from what would normally go to the school from the general fun.
Net result - hidden tax for the government, no additional money for the schools.

And of course the system is fool-proof against false positives.

HAHAHAHA. And 1 day after the first camera is installed the NAACP will be out screaming it disproportionally hurts blacks who are unable to afford the fines.

Hell no because it will never stop and the invasiveness of liberal encroachment knows no bounds especially when you are paying for it while they’re exempt.
To: Mr. K
< WITH ALL THE TAX MONEY ALREADY COLLECTED WHY DO THE SCHOOLS STILL NEED TO GO BEGGING???
Because no matter how much they get its never enough. Watch the teenagers with free reign of their parent's credit cards at the malls here the next few days and you'll get a good taste of what a wasteful spendthrift the leftist government is like. Give em an inch and they'll take a yard.
To: Blue Jays
> Indeed. Not to mention the costs of installing and administering the expensive cameras and infrastructure likely to collect NOTHING in revenue!
If they don't produce enough revenue they penalize the client and make them pay a certain amount according to how the account was initially set up. Several municipalities have been sued for these amounts and it's not cheap to litigate.
