Sounds like a Dem's command-control solution to things. I'd just let RT drive as she usually does.

This prompts me to ask: If red-light cameras do not decrease accidents, can they survive rational-basis review? Should we have them at all, or are they just a driving tax?

I initially bought the idea that they, and their speeding-camera brethren, might have a deterrent effect, which overcame my belief that they were principally to raise revenue. But without even that thin reed to stand on, shouldn't they have to go?
