theres a small town in louisiana called the city of gretna it signed a contract with redflex to install up to 15 traffic cameras at intersections. trouble was most if not all intersections are controlled by the state of la. dept. of transportation. the dot said you can install the cameras but you have to be responsible for the traffic lights. of course the local police cheif got p.o. at the dot and pulled back his plans and is now using redflex to catch speeders at up to thirty more or less locations thru out the city. all areas have no posted warning signs and locations have never been warned to the public because this is a money thing to catch you before you adjust your vehicules speed. dam if only gm and ford and other autos would put a over speed limit alarm in my car i might not drive five miles over for a few seconds before i adjust to late picture been taken.

In my opinion, the Governor of Arizona has officially recognized photo enforcement as the cash cow that it really is. She is attempting to attach the state coffers to the cash cow udders. In her efforts to have part of the fines from photo enforcement go the state, she is, in my opinion, fully acknowledging that photo enforcement is all about generating revenue. In proposing the state’s participation in this potential rip off, she was quoted as making estimates of the number of photos that would be taken, the number of net tickets that would be generated after bad photos were tossed, and the amount of revenue that would be generated after traffic school options were exercised. And I’ve had local a local police chief and a town manager try to convince me that I’m wrong when I contend that photo enforcement is very much about revenue generation.

In the state of MD we have an “overflow” account that the money from tickets and fines go into and is given to the state to put into whatever they see fit. You can look it up if you dont believe me.
