Speed Cameras...Know Your Enemy

[1_2Many]

Found a website that lists red light cameras and speed cameras for each US city and state. Check your city to make sure they don't have any speed cameras. If they do...please shoot it.

I got nailed one time by a speed camera van in Tempe, AZ. Tempe Police have an Astro van that they move around to different locations around the city.

They have one here in Baton Rouge that catches people flying by in the right lane because an the stop light its 2 lanes but 20ft pass the light is one lane so they get caught speeding to get ahead in the single lane...

The link is not working for me btw...


EDIT: Its working

And if you see anyone shooting at the red light cameras, please call 911 immediately giving police the make, model, color, and license plate # of the vehicle that just broke the law. We'd like to find the owner of that stray bullet that misses the camera (or ricochets) hitting that innocent 2 year old playing in the front yard of their home with mom and dad a few blocks away.

Better yet, don't shoot at the camera and just don't run the light.

We don't want any violence. Someone innocent could get hurt.

Just climb up there and put a piece of paper over it.

2 things.....first off you don't "run" a speeding camera, you just go about your daily routine and get a ticket in the mail. It's simply a cash cow with no regard for slowing people...black and white cars do a better job at that.

Second off, I was kidding about shooting the cameras, but hopefully you can understand my frustration with them. If not, then I suggest reading the book 1984 and let me know if that's what you want for this country.

I don't like the idea of the law being enforced by camera without human judgement being considered. Many officers of the law are reasonable people that can tell the difference between someone who crossed the line by an inch and didn't really deserve a ticket.

I’d like to see some cameras to send people tickets for blocking intersections, but the rest seem to make driving significantly less safe.

As long as you enter on a yellow and don't block the intersection, you will be fine!

I know you were kidding. I know you guys wouldn't do that.
And I didn't say "run" a speeding camera. I said "just don't run the light."
Sorry...I know you were kidding, but I jumped in there like this policeman always does.

That's right!

Totally random here, but man I feel really bad I broke my friends rib last night at the bowling alley. We were just horseplaying, but I still feel really bad not sure what to do. :(

Tell him to rub some dirt on it and quit whining.

I actually got a ticket for running a red light, I entered the intersection the light was yellow, and it was still yellow as it dissappeared from my sight, but the cop said it turned red before I was completely through the intersection, so he gave me a ticket. It was a judgment call on my part to go through since I was following a truck, and my 7000 lb beast does not stop on a dime, and no I was not following the truck to close.
