FYI, they have positioned them on a stretch of freeway that lends itself to going faster, downhill etc. Just like the light ones where they trim down the yellow to get more, they impact safety to make more money claiming the entire thing is for safety. This is a boon for taxes and do not forget the insurance companies and traffic school revenue.

They are really pushing the limits of America with this, time for a Scottsdale "tea party"

When a yellow light is 'trimmed' to increase revenue from a red light camera, there is an increased risk factor. How did placing speed cameras increase the danger level? Did they tilt the freeway a little more to speed people up?
