Private contractors enforcing traffic laws is not a good thing

The only defenses for the ticket are if the person receiving the ticket didn’t own the vehicles when the violation occurred; the vehicle had been reported stolen; or the monitoring equipment wasn’t calibrated properly.

isn’t that like giving a home owner a ticket because their house was robbed?

Why stop at construction zones? Why not have this monitoring equipment on every inch of the roadways? No one could ever speed anywhere without that $150 fine coming automatically.

Agreed.

I have had first hand experience with this. Two decades ago I was a lead conducting a pipeline safety study on Rt. 6 near Scranton PA. Signs, cones, vehicle lights and flags.

I barely escaped being run down by an elderly woman. My company vehicle did not.

One month later, a worker from my company was killed on the Pennsylvania Turnpike when a semi plowed into their construction zone.

Long overdue.
