What do you think about programing navigation units to avoid Enforcement Camera locations?
I believe that could only be done by the manufacturer, and would be an option like avoiding toll roads or freeways.
I wouldn't personally avoid
I wouldn't personally avoid them and get detoured way out of my way. As long as you are aware that they are there and don't run a stoplight, you are all good!

Avoidance
I don't go out of my way to avoid them either. But a "heads-up" reminder from the GPS keeps me from doing something stupid.

You could go crazy in some cities
Some cities have a LOT of cameras. You might end up with a really convoluted route in some areas as it tries to avoid them all.
Try that in NYC

Try that in NYC, you never get anywhere, just be going around and around!

Not Worth It
So far my brain matter hasn't disolved yet so I try to remember them and approach with caution since I frequently travel in those locations and if I'm not using the nuvi.
I agree
To me it would not be worth it... I live in the Atlanta Area (Gwinnett County) and they seem to have fallen in love with the blame things. I made a 7 mile trip the other night and went through 6 Red Light camera intersections!!!
Pathetic!!!

Missing fun
And miss all the pretty flashing lights while other drivers trigger the redlight cameras?

Sometimes the little lights flash a lot. I sat and watched for a 1/2 hr. one day. There were 20 flashs in that time and it was a slow day.

I did the same when they installed them in my old neighborhood, sat in the KFC across the street I lost count in the hour I was enjoying the 3 piece meal.
Different Here
I guess in Texas people are too cheap to run the red light camera since several cities are removing them because they are not paying enough to cover the cost.

I thought that the good folks of the Lone Star State were exercising their god given right of self defence and were shooting them to Kodak heaven

Avoid red light cams
It is better to know where they are than to avoid them.
In Toronto, Ontario, Canada they stop installation of cams for now, because they realized the revenue is not as great as they expected. I can see them installing more cams when the economy is better and there are more people driving.
Gps! ask where to go and get there! Best of all, what we need is to have accurate pois to reach all destinations
