Looks like Texas might step up and be Texas when it comes to red light
cameras.The statewide banning of red-light cameras is now more possible than ever.
Reps. Carl Isett, Gary Elkins and other lawmakers believe the cameras are not just a way for cities to make extra money, but deny motorists the right to face their accuser in court.
"I feel good about our chances" Isett, R-Lubbock, said Tuesday. "I think it will advance."
The legislation to ban red-light cameras is moving despite strong opposition from local governments.
Yeah, well, no shit. Any city will think a red light camera is a the goose shitting golden eggs (or however that goes) as is evident by how fast every city in Texas is
throwing them up.Labels: red light cameras
