More near tailgating accidents than ever as unsuspecting drivers approach the traffic camera zone and brakes are suddenly applied ahead for no apparent reason. Government....GO HOME!

I'm not too familiar with Jan Brewer, but she's hit a couple of home runs lately.

Traffic cameras cannot talk to the occupants of the car & determine if any of them don’t have papers.

I don’t like the camera ticketing anyway- The camera companies get part of the revenue- & then they demand a VERY SHORT cycle of light changes.

I drive a Chevy dually & am ofter towing a 4 horse trailer. Not Kosher to leap forward with horses in the trailer.
No way I can safely get thru an intersection from a dead stop with a very short time cycle. Those cameras would record me as going thru a red light be the time I get thru a wide intersection.

Woohoo. Now we need to get rid of the city cameras, and pass that referendum. Even though these things aren’t enforceable they’re still evil, and the faster they go away the better.

Would these be the photo enforcement vans we’ll see out in the middle of the desert while inbound from California on I-10?

In Tucson being a process server is a growth industry.

All of the photo tickets are delivered by Process Servers because of the previous state law ruling.

The program, started in 2008 by Brewer's Democratic predecessor Janet Napolitano,

Scratch a Orwellian neo fascist program, find the author is a "Progressive".

Has this issue ever been resolved with traffic cameras and the Constitution? Since you have the right to confront your accuser, it would appear to present an intractable conundrum.

and the faster they go away the better.

I read about some teenagers in Maryland who use their computers to create fake cardboard license plates using the plate numbers of adults they don’t like, and then go speeding past the cameras. With any luck this trend will catch on with the Yutes nationwide.

That was the sole reason Austin did not fully boycott AZ. It is based in AZ, and Austin PD LOVES those &*^%$#@ cameras.
