It’s insane the lengths that some people will go to save a few seconds on their commute, while also endangering others.

    Incorrect; they discriminate disproportionately on poor people

    Unless the fines are proportional to wealth, I don’t see how you can argue that they’re not disproportionally punishing the poorest who are caught.

      I agree the fines should be proportionate, but a police officer doing the enforcement can stop whoever they don’t like the look of whether or not they are actually speeding whereas a camera will only target those who are actually, you know, speeding.
