sure thats fine but how long between snap shot an removel from the roads for a drunk or 100mph+ racer. thats right a camera can't do that. only a officer can haul their butt in on the spot. in the mean time the camera lets them go on for weeks. And if they cant read the plate right or get a perfect driver id shot, or name doesn't match gender on registration, or its reg to a p.o. box, its not even sent out.
i know this because we have it in az.
sucks, traffic slows down for the camera and then jumps up 10-15mph till the next camera over and over.
besides the state/city give a big piece of change to the camera guys for rental and proccessing.
real policemen cant be replaced
