Thanks for the bump :-)

I'm considering a "phase 2" to the protest: purposely driving through a camera-infested intersection, make darn sure it takes my photo going through it. Then demand my day in court and for all witnesses to come forth against me, per my Constitutional right.

Ever wonder what a 100-lb camera looks like walking into a courtroom? Let's find out... ;-)

They'll have to drive the whole van, or pull the whole trailer in...

BTW, sincere congrats on your engagement. Y'all are truly blessed...

Living in Denver, I avoid anything to do with Boulder at all costs. Anyplace that can ticket you for walking on a sidewalk and smoking a cigarette is a menace to me.
That said, did you know that the newest thing is for the lights to be rigged to encourage folks to run red lights? They installed cameras at an intersection I used on my way to work. Before, when you pulled up to a red light, the pressure sensor would activate and you'd get a green. NOW, you can sit there staring at a pointless red light at three in the morning for 3 minutes with no cars for miles wishing you had a .22 rifle to kill the cameras. When it finally does change, it gives you only 4 seconds to get through the intersection. If there's 4 or more cars there waiting with you, the 4th guy NEVER makes it through. If he tries, he's nailed by the cameras.
