I just wanted to share a couple of things I saw on TV the other day. One town in NJ removes red light cameras from one or two intersections after the accidents increased by 50% because drivers were afraid to go through the yellow light and were braking abruptly. At least one town mayor has common sense!
In another unrelated piece of news - actually, it was just the headline, some boneheads in Europe are floating the legislation proposing to equip all cars with an automatic system which would apply brakes if a car exceeds posted speed limits. Cars will be receiving speed limit info automatically as they drive through the respective sections of the roadways. I wonder what provisions do they have for bikes? Military technology (radars, lasers) and other technology are used to enforce speed limits. However, no technology is used to automatically adjust speed limits depending on actual conditions such as lighting, weather, and traffic. We all know why.
