It’s insane the lengths that some people will go to save a few seconds on their commute, while also endangering others.
minus-squarescarilog@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 months ago If traffic cameras worked to prevent traffic violations they wouldn’t be revenue streams. They can be both lol. Prevent traffic violations for the people that care about the consequences, and a revenue stream from people that don’t. Yet, in the real world, we know it will only slow down the people who think about consequences. Better than nothing.
minus-squarequeermunist she/her@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoThey literally can’t be both. If the camera is a revenue stream then people are constantly getting tickets, which means nothing has been solved. I don’t really care about motorists, but that doesn’t stop me from acknowledging these as a scam
