Smile Red light cameras too good for their own good?

Story on MSNBC about red light cameras being turned off because the amount of fines coming in is not enough to support them.

Do red light cameras work too well? - Crime & courts - MSNBC.com

Veilguy thought you would get a kick out of this.

Frank,

Indeed.

Less "revenue" coupled with increases in rear-end collision rates.

Hmmm. Sounds like a "winning" formula to me (and it was never about 'safety'):

Any reasonably thinking individual can see that those revenue numbers were "pie-in-the-sky" to pop sales for these for-profit companies.
