Are red light cameras a good idea? I really don't think that is the important issue. They shouldn't be necessary. All it takes is for drivers to exercise something that is in short supply in this country - common sense.
It is against the law to run a red light, but more importantly, it is unsafe. So why keep doing it? Because it is your Constitutional right as an American to break any law that you don't agree with or that inconveniences you in some manner?
A Tampa opponent of the cameras recently whined, "It destroys our liberties." The liberty to break the law by running a red light? Give me a break! The cameras are being installed specifically for bozos like this.
And, not a moment too soon.
