Our governor actually signed a bill to get rid of the ones on our freeways.
It's so nice now. They were actually causing more issues than they were fixing, on top of them costing more than they were making (I think they said that more than 70% or so weren't paying the tickets).
There are still red-light cameras, which I guess I'm okay with - except that they do speed too, which is dumb.
Though, there's a law that states that drivers must be warned a certain distance ahead of the camera and one of our cities puts no signs out that their mobile unit is ahead... I'm waiting for the day I get one and I can go to court and win.
