Speed camera doing work

quote:

Brooklyn, NY – Records compiled by New York City’s Department of Transportation (DOT) reveal that a single speed camera located Brooklyn pumped out an astonishing 1,551 tickets on a single day this past July, totaling a staggering $77,550 for the city.

NYPOST.com (LINK ) reports that the numbers produced by the camera on Monday July 7, which is located at the end of a 400-foot exit ramp near Ocean Parkway, have drawn mixed reviews.

City Councilman Chaim Deutsch said anyone speeding “deserves a ticket,” while fellow Councilman Mark Treyger said the positioning of the camera amounts to nothing more than a “speed trap.”

A DOT spokesman said the positioning of the camera provides a “good amount” of distance for speed reduction by drivers entering the marked 30-mph speed limit area.

Speed cameras are one thing, but I'm really against red light cameras. Sometimes it isn't safe to slam on your breaks to make the light.

IS it safer than getting t-boned by someone who makes the green light perfectly? I would rather have someone rear end me.

Quick math:

$77k per day x 5 days per week x 4 weeks per month = $1.5 million per month. $18 million per year.

That cash cow ain't goin' nowhere.

I can even get behind left turn red light cameras to some degree. But a right turn on red camera is pure revenue generation. frick those things.
