Another Red Light Camera Chapter

...The Florida version, where the state House came close to repealing the law authorizing them.


Here in Alabama, the bill authorizing speed cameras in the city of Montgomery is making its way through the Legislature and has already been approved by the Senate.


Senator Dick Brewbaker is the sponsor, and he lives outside the city of Montgomery, in Pike Road, (The 25th District covers parts of Elmore and Montgomery Counties.)




The Florida article linked above points out that a group supporting red light cameras---The National Coalition of Safer Roads-- is a front for the camera manufacturers. The warmer sounding the name of special interest groups, the less I trust 'em.
