Moses,
I am not here to upset anyone and No I did not personally count the number of cars running red light either before, during or after the use of the red light cameras, so all I can go on is what is reported by the local news outlets.
Our local news reported that the cameras did reduce the instances of red light runners, then the instances increased after they were taken out of service. Now this may or may not reduce the actual number of accidents at these intersections but it sure would seem they would reduce the chances of it happening.
Besides if you are not breaking the law and running the lights what difference does it make if they are there to watch. And if they save one life they are worth it, after all it might be someone you love they save.

Oh and yes I have gotten a ticket for running a red light by an officer. Was arguing with ex-girlfriend and not paying attention(what an idiot I was)!
