in the Vancouver BC area
I am finding that POI is working out better than cyclops.
There were a few valid alerts from POI, where Cyclops didn't even go off.
That really made me question Cyclops, when there are still alerts for NJ, who did away with rlcs 4 years ago.

speed cams should be coming to Phila
again, I'm not a proponent of them, and am a proponent of rlcs.
I do agree there is a problem on Roosevelt Ave.

Garmin Cyclops false alerts
It would seem to me that maintaining an accurate database is very difficult.
Yesterday, we were passing through NJ, and being alerted at all the old intersections where NJ had rlcs. They did away with them years ago.
Back in July, I purchased the Cyclops figuring we're going to be spending time in Toronto, let's be extra careful and do the belt and suspenders method of awareness.

red light cameras in general
Yesterday, I thought about it again, as I passed through the cam at 34th and Grays Ferry in Phila., making a left turn.
Two cars ahead of me ran 3 consecutive lights heading west. That would be 35th, S Harmony, and Grove. This happens every day, day in, day out. But very few people run 34th and Grays Ferry.

University study: Red light cameras don't reduce accidents
Here's yet another study, this time by Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, that shows that red light cameras don't make intersections safer. It's a short but interesting read.

Everyone who's surprised raise your hand.

Has anyone here ever gotten a speed or rlc ticket?
I have in 2002, and I didn't even know they existed.
My hunch is the % on this forum is < .01
I have always wanted to find a case where someone was wrongfully ticketed, other than the obvious, where a stationary vehicle got a ticket, or 100% of people got a ticket, i.e. malfunction. Never have seen one and I've been here a long time...still curious

So much for quality control... Traffic camera in New Orleans giving speeding tickets to parked cars
Looks like the people certifying that a "violation occurred" don't even look at the pictures, they just send out the violations. Maybe if it happened only once I'd be forgiving, but not for more than ten times.

Red Light Camera Direction Of Travel
I've been playing around with the latest version of the red light camera POI file, when out of nowhere, an idea hit 
As I've always been annoyed to hear the beeps of an upcoming camera and then find out the camera is pointing in another direction, I thought why not change the CSV file to list the street name and direction in the description?

Speed Cam Case in Ohio may go to Supreme Court
A Speed Cam case in Ohio may go to the U.S. Supreme Court. A Federal Court has ruled that the town of New Miami in Ohio must return more than $3 million in automated speeding tickets. This could bankrupt the town!
Seems that the court saw the cameras as just a money making scheme. This is exactly what many people believe.

NPR This American Life on Ohio Speed Traps and Cameras
This is a great public radio story of Linndale, Ohio, and how the town shifted from being a traditional speed trap to a camera trap after the state tried to reign in speed traps designed primarily for village funding.
