Partly in response to the requests of many communities wanting to install the infamous “red light cameras”, an Arizona company is analyzing intersections in which there are more than 15 red light infractions per 24 hour period. Installation of the cameras improves roadway safety and is also easier on the law enforcement budget in that an actual policeman doesn’t have to be there to see the infraction. The system remains controversial, with many citizens saying that they have been ticketed wrongly while making the “free right on red” maneuver. Analysis seems to show that this isn’t the case, with many people not completely stopping before crossing the line and taking the right turn.
