Traffic cameras are nothing but a money machine. Accidents at intersections can be dramatically reduced simply by increasing the duration of the yellow light. But of course that doesn't involve a money grab so they won't do it!

Exactly. The irony is that several camera intersections in DC have suspicously short yellow light intervals. Seems Big Brother is willing to risk lives for new revenue.
