We virtually elected a Provincial government on their promise to eliminate photo RADAR alone. They did, but they left all the laws governing its use in place.

She ordered the first 42 mobile ticketing units stationed every twenty miles on Interstates 10 and 40 over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

Unreal. Fucking theft is all it is. The governor should be dragged out of her mansion and stoned to death.

You guys can't even imagine what its like living here with all the fookin' cameras now! Especially since its snowbird season (old people from other states come here for the warm weather and they are called snowbirds) and not only do they add tons of drivers to over-crowded roads, they are SLOW drivers. But god forbid you try to pass one of them driving under the speed limit and to do so safely, go OVER the speed limit 'cause the camera will get ya!

Are they in fixed locations? When they were using it up here, they put the bloody cameras in vans and moved them around the highways. As a result every time some Nervous Nellie saw any vehicle parked at the side of the road, he would nail the brakes regardless of whether he was speeding or not

Some of them are, some of them are not. They are all over the place too, not just on the freeway. And of course there are also the redlight cameras to catch people running through lights as well. What really sucks is when you suddenly see the "flash" and don't know if its you getting your picture taken for going 6 over, or someone else! I seriously question their ability to accurately measure the speed of each and every vehicle that drives over the sensor, or whatever it is.
