This is rich. Congress has come to the conclusion, that municipalities may actually be using red light cameras as revenue devices as opposed to traffic safety devices.
There are allegations that cities have manipulated the timing of the yellow and green lights, to trap motorists with a short yellow, AND raising the fine in some cases from < $100 to >$250. Some city I heard on the radio today, had revenues just from red light cameras of 16 million dollars.
