Reply to comment by jabbadarth in Why isn't there red light cameras on every single intersection? by canipetyourdog420

I’m on board for better road design. Don’t see how police watching for traffic violations is any less dystopian than cameras though

It's significantly less dystopian and verifies that the person driving is the one getting in trouble. With a camera all you can do is send a ticket to an address. If it's the wrong address, oh well, if someone was borrowing your car too bad, if the plates aren't registered uh oh.

I'm not one for a police state but enforcing traffic laws is a pretty low bar to ask of police
