I haven't been ticketed by any automated enforcement cameras in all these years despite driving through two automated enforcement camera zones going to and coming from work, so I am not a disgruntled victim. But it seems to me that if ONE intersection (Chester at 71st) generates 23,275 tickets in a year, there is something wrong with the intersection, not 23,275 drivers.
An intersection with that many infractions has something wrong with it. The engineers should be studying the driving and traffic patterns that create this unsafe situation and fix it. Of course the ultimate goal is to have an intersection with no infractions, but the city is doing nothing to achieve that. It's too bad that the city fathers opted to sacrifice safety to generate revenue.
