Paul Henry commented on Ocala. “Red-light cameras are a legitimate revenue source,” interim City Manager Eddie Esch said during a council meeting, “but they are disheartening to people.”. Only if you consider revenue collected in violation of basic rights to due process, innocence, having witnesses in court, and disproportionate fines and punishments as legitimate. Our founders did not, and many Americans are disheartened to see our rights and principles of justice nullified so that out of state camera companies can ensure their profits. You cannot fool the people for an extended amount of time with schemes such as this one. "— Crash data, including information on side-impact and rear-end crashes". That will set up any study for failure. This is like assessing the effect of something you buy to increase your gas mileage and then seeing if the radio works. One has nothing to do with the other. To properly assess the effectiveness of a device installed to reduce or prevent red light violation (RLV) crashes, the obvious data to be analyzed is RLV crashes. The state used this same "fuzzy math" in their 2012 undocumented survey of the cities using automated for-profit law enforcement. This undocumented survey was gobbled up by the media as gospel despite 20 to 30% of agencies required to report crash data failing to do so (among other shortcomings). The devices are neither "rear-end" cameras nor "side-impact" cameras. They are red light cameras. The Liberty First Network is leading the fight in Florida against red light cameras in 2014.
