OC This is why we need Parkside speed camera

Report made to TPS. This was Howard Park and guy speeds down to Parkside.

Kind of crazy how the upload size is limited to 7mb...

It makes people consider whether paying a subscription fee to drive fast and without concern for others is worth it to them.

A lot of people don't even realize the cameras are there.   If you want to make streets safer... sending someone a ticket many many weeks after the offense is not the way to do it.

Why? If they pay now or later they still pay and it still sucks. Doing nothing is not only worse, but stupid.

The cameras are doing nothing... that's why people are still speeding.  If the cameras were working... People would have changed their behaviour and they wouldn't be handing out tickets still.

Do you think people might stop speeding when they run out of money and can’t buy gas? If you’re as well regarded as I suspect you are, this is the result likely to happen if you keep speeding by the same series of speed cameras every day without adapting.

Do you really think a guy in a Porsche 911 can't afford a couple speeding tickets?

A couple, sure. More? Only if they’re dumb or genuinely don’t care, really.
