The only one I am against is photo radar. That to me is a cash grab. Especially when it is placed on a highway or a major street.

Why not set it up around schools when there is heavy children traffic flow or on neighbourhood streets where there are parks.

Then the photo radar would actually ding motorists where driving fast is dangerous. And have an officer there to hand out the ticket to the driver.

Why do you feel this is a problem? Set it up in both areas I'd say. So what if it is a cash grab. Better speeding motorists pay for our dept than me with rising taxes. People in Ontario drive too fast. I'd be willing be most serious accidents are caused in some part by excessive speed. Photo radar does slow people down. At least everyone I've talked to about it admits the watch their speed more.
