Ban Them All!!

Now if they would ban them throughout the state (as well as the other 49 and Canada), THEN I would agree that these cameras are a good thing... "A good thing NOT to have"! grin wink

I'm not really lost.... just temporarily misplaced!

Rulings against cameras are piling up.

Seems that another judge read the constitution and found the almighty state needs to be reined in.

"March 3, 2014 9:00AM
HAMILTON (AP) -- The speeding cameras have gone dark in another Ohio community, the latest turned off by a string of court rulings against automated traffic enforcement.
A Butler County judge last week ordered the village of New Miami to hit stop, saying cameras were being used to violate motorists' rights to due process.
The new order followed a strong rebuke of speeding cameras in a Cincinnati-area village by a judge in neighboring Hamilton County who called them a scam against motorists, and appellate court rulings against camera systems in Toledo and Cleveland."

And...

...the Ohio State Legislature is looking into banning them as well. There is now a bill being considered that will ban them throughout the entire state.

They will fix the "due process" objection and the cameras will be back in business. That should overflow the traffic courts.
