Red light cameras?

Who's in favor of red light cameras? Who's against?

Do you think a cycling organization should come out in favor of them?

This is a serious question, not a troll. I know a cycling
organization whose officers are trying to decide.

One (1) vote for.

one approach you could try is coming into country intersection at abt
125-turn your lights off so oncoming traffis is visible.
works great !

Those things are the reason I took the front license plate off my
bike!

We've got 'em. http://blog.oregonlive.com/commuting...meras_not.html
They're great for generating revenue. They are reported to reduce
accidents, so I could see a yes vote from a cycling organization. --

Traffic cameras rely on photos of the license plate in order to
function. Unless you want a large metal licence plate on your
bicycle, methinks that a cyclists would not need to worry much about
getting a ticket from a traffic camera. If this cycling organization
wants to take a stand on traffic cameras for automobiles, methinks
they're somewhat out of their area of concern and expertise. No vote
for me.

(I initially thought you were asking about infrared photography).

Methinks that the cycling organization is worried about getting
mowed down by an automobile running a red light rather than
about getting a ticket.

Skewing the odds towards avoiding becoming a greasy spot on
the pavement seems a laudable goal for a cycling organization.
