EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (AP) - Speeders across the Martin Luther King Bridge at East St. Louis, beware. Cameras soon could be watching you if some lawmakers have their way. The Illinois House on Tuesday passed a measure calling for cameras that would automatically snap photos of speeding motorists on the Mississippi River span linking East St. Louis to downtown St. Louis.

Money collected from tickets carrying fines of up to $250 would be split between East St. Louis and the state of Illinois.

The bill now heads back to the Senate.

What will the casino's on the river think

about the cameras. I doubt if they will like to have their potential customers, loosing money to the city, before they make their contributions to the casino.
