Over here in the midwest USA these cameras have been springing up on the highways (mounted on the overhanging sodium lamps) like crazy. What's really amazing is that there is so little public *notice* of them (I realize the public may not bitch about it, but I _am_ surprised that the public *literally* doesn't *see* them).
I've wondered greatly at how useful these cameras can be on major arteries where average speeds are in the 50-75mph range, but I guess the answer lies in their proliferation.

Terranson [EMAIL PROTECTED] If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------
