They’re still the same asshole overseers and strikebreakers, enemies of the poor and oppressed.

The original speed cameras went up in Black neighborhoods, then expanded to other minority and poorer neighborhoods primarily,. They only added a camera to two predominantly white and wealthy neighborhoods last year, finally.

That’s only because the cameras can’t make a pretextual stop. As soon as they get that little kink worked out, the cameras will be just as racist as the cops! Problem solved! /s

Just wait until you too are sent a bill for hundreds of dollars for failing to come to a “full and complete” stop doing a right on red with no other traffic at 2mph. Not a hypothetical. Yay, traffic cameras?

I got one of those. But I wasn’t the one driving. I wasn’t even in the country at the time! But the car was registered in my name so :man_shrugging:
