    If you want to end the enforcement cameras just take a picture of the plates of your least favorite high ranking political figure. Print a ton out and go a sports bar or chad gym and paste over all the plates in the parking lot. Prioritize cars with big fins or stance. That driver’s infraction are re routed to the copied tag. Rinse repeat once they catch on to that tag.

      If you want to end the enforcement cameras, drive responsibly and don’t break the rules that are written in blood.

      There are many instances of dystopian government overreach in many places. This ain’t it.

          Our state has speed cameras in school zones. I would like to see before-and-after statistics showing that fewer kids have been hit since the installation of the cameras.

          Of course, said data doesn’t exist, because no one bothered to collect it. It “feels” safer and generates revenue, so they do it.

          Which you can easily counter by following the rules for once.

          The solution is as simple as that, and if you feel compelled to break the rules - let it at least be a source of revenue.

        Eh…

        There’s quite a bit of low tax rates mixed in with that ink. Politicians want to boast about low taxes, but that revenue needs to come from somewhere and now it’s fines and fees.
