I can condone taking down pedestrian surveillance, but people who drive cars should follow the rules or get fucked.

    That would be fine if they did anything to increase safety but studies have shown it actually increases accidents by 3-8% https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2095756415302786

    From that study:

    "red light running photo enforcement installed experienced 4 percent reduction in fatal crashes for intersections with multilane approaches, and 48 percent reduction for intersections with single-lane approaches."

    Reduction means LESS.
