I agree with Abbotsford city council about bringing back photo radar, especially in, but not restricted to, school zones. I especially like the idea of two warning tickets before you have to pay. This would get drivers paying more attention to the speed limit in the future.
I saw the positive effects of this in Edmonton, when the new ring freeway was completed. There were concerns about speeding and accidents. So an aggressive photo radar campaign was launched. Within a year, people were driving the speed limit of 100 km/h or even under. The only ones that seemed to speed , is the ones who hadn’t paid speeding tickets.
This could create a new driving culture without being a money grab.
