“Please...the shortened lights “caused†the collisions?”
The cameras in Tallahassee were not producing enough revenue, so they shortened the yellow to the legal minimum. If you were not already in the intersection you would not make it through in time. According to my neighbor, the engineer on the project, it increased rear end collisions.
They have just removed the cameras as they were losing money. (Pardon, “revenue.”)
I’ve heard that multiple times, that when the yellows are increased by law,
the cameras no longer pay for themselves,
and the companies providing the cameras (and getting a share)
pull them because it’s no longer profitable to provide them.
