Hi,

That's exactly where this is all headed. Spend a Grand or two on a Stop Sign Camera and avoid Salaries, Healthcare, Pensions, and the like. It will become too irresistable for many counties and minucipalities, especially after the Mfgrs market the H*ll out of them. And, it won't take very long to reach saturation either.

Face it, most people only drive to get from Point A to Point B. They could care less, in fact would probably support such moves - who's gonna argue against Public Safety?

It's a Windfall for the Politicos, either giving them more revenues to play with or forestalling Tax Increases - the bane of all politicians.

Like I said - Get it while you can...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
