Cameras Have Not Improved Traffic Safety

To All Pennsylvania Drivers:

DC Speed Cameras Have Not Improved Traffic Safety.

Accident rates have not improved in Washington, DC after issuing $500 million in speed and red light camera tickets.

Washington, DC has been using speed cameras for more than a decade, but traffic safety has not improved. The city's private vendors have mailed more than 7 million photo tickets and collected a half-billion dollars in revenue, injury accidents have not declined as they have throughout the rest of the country. http://www.thenewspaper.com/ne...

Speed cameras are only for money, not for safety, as shown in Washington, D.C.

This is the exact result Pennsylvania will get if speed cameras are allowed on our highways. This is the exact result that the camera promoters want. They see us as cash cows driving 4 wheel ATMs to be tapped over and over again. We are not cash cows, we are taxpaying voters and this is an election year.

Your Representative and Senator voted the wrong way on Speed Trap Bill SB 172 and I want you call them and tell them to VOTE NO on SB 172. Speed Trap Bill SB 172 must be defeated to keep Pennsylvania roads safe. I repeat, this IS an election year.

Sincerely,

Tom McCarey Member, Pennsylvania Chapter of the National Motorists Association
