Speed camera update (Sept.11)

Do you have your can of spray paint ready?
Lol. Oh I'm going to get nailed. I've been driving on the road twice a day for 39 years not doing the posted 60km/h. (maybe 65 - 70) Now I'll have to concentrate to overcome my muscle memory. I'm doomed to fail at this at 5:30 am. I'll update soon.

Did they also drop the speed limit to increase revenue? 10 over isn't very profitable.

To avoid making two posts in a row, a niagara resident found another way to disable the camera. I'm not even sure if this is a crime. Maybe mischief or littering? There is no damage and there are no repairs required.

Cameras aren't installed yet. Will see if speed limit is changed. I've never seen or heard of any accidents at this location.

I always thought sticking a garbage bag over one would be interesting and not actually damage the unit. Smearing dog poop would also work! It would be shiity to clean up!

Her misuse of apostrophes should be a crime. She forgot to put one into guys and Falls.
 
Here we go. Douggie is working on legislation to ban speed cameras entirely. Fwiw, I'm not anti-speed camera. I think they can serve a useful purpose. However, government once again has perverted a good idea to straight fundraising with almost no connection to the stated purpose.

They took what could have been ok and turned it into a disaster. If the speed limits were left alone and the cameras set to a reasonable threshold it would have been fine. But no

Exactly. 20 over design speed in actual school zones when kids are around and I doubt there would be much opposition.

I’d be a little upset if they were still negotiating locations and revenue with a U.S. company.
I favour red light cameras, over speed cameras, in the sense that you either did it or didn’t, and many of the dangerous situations are at intersections.
 
I just feel this is the wrong move, if it's a straight up ban, removal of speed camera's. Also the political angle is very reminiscent of the 90's.

Also my gut is staying, once they start removing them, some kid is going to be run down, and we'll be right back here.
Though they do say something about implementing road infrastructure..... we'll see.
