The speed camera nightmare that's coming to America: How the UK's hated war on motorists - costing drivers $56M in fines every year - provides a chilling glimpse of what's in store under Pete Buttigieg's plan

• Buttigieg on Thursday revealed plans to 'promote' speed cameras across the US
• The plan is part of a safety package backed by $14 billion in new funding
• In the UK, speed cameras have been ubiquitous for decades and are despised
• In the US they are a matter of debate, and banned by law in at least seven states
• US critics from both the right and the left are opposed to speed cameras
• Conservatives view them as overreach and liberals oppose fines funding police
• In the UK omnipresent speed cameras are matter of fury and controversy

As I understand it, the biggest problem with the cameras is how they are calibrated. The argument is that the cameras discharge regardless of the color of the light or the speed of the vehicle and there is no real way to challenge the ticket.

It is not being used for 'safety' at all. The sole purpose of the cameras is fund raising. Since Democrats HATE police, where will all these new funds go? Illegal immigrants would be a likely recipient.

They are inherently racist because they ticket the driver regardless of race.

Restored:
"They are inherently racist because they ticket the driver regardless of race."

Not with the new AI software that will be installed on the upcoming cameras.
It will snap a pic of the driver, check the race of the person at the wheel, and then mail tickets only to white and Asian drivers.

"Justice", y'know...  ;-)

Democrats love government oppression to justify tax and freedom oppression.  Remember this is part of democrats demanding;anything is better than Trump.   ...and they are busy ramming it down your throat for being dumb enough to believe and go along with that.
As said countless times YOU GET WHAT YOU VOTED FOR,  BAWLING ABOUT IT LATER MEANS NOTHING...,  Socialist democrats are immune to learning even hard  brutal lessons.

This is a regressive tax.
