“A single camera can generate more than $100,000 in revenue in a single year,” Esdaile said. "But please think about where that money comes from and where it goes. In many cases, it comes from drivers responsible for only the most minor infractions, including right turns where they didn’t quite come to a total stop. ... The argument that red light cameras protect urban communities from reckless drivers is unconvincing. Different studies have provided conflicting results and the research funded by red light camera companies and the insurance industry are far more likely to show safety benefits than other studies.”
