You guys had better fight it - or you'll end up like my end of the world: a camera on every streetlight and a ticket generated automatically for as little as 1.5mph over the limit.
Our government also uses the term "Speed Kills", when really it's a smokescreen for outrageous revenue-raising. My state has a population of around 6.5 million, so the govt. budgets for almost $400m/year in speed camera revenue... yet not one cent seems to be spent on better quality roads or even driver education! Our road safety campaigns for children have completely stopped and speed limits in school zones are enforced without mercy. I have no issue with school zones, but if they were still teaching kids how to cross the road (like when I was at school), half the problem wouldn't exist.
So, the government runs a series of unecessarily graphic (and patronizing) "reality" TV ads, in an effort to justify their Gestapo tactics.
Fight it, guys. It's a friggin' police-state.
