If it’s catching that many violations then, regardless of the absolute trigger threshold, any sane city authority would start the cameras at a very high threshold and gradually reduce it. Having people start driving exactly at the speed limit, while many are still expecting to go significantly faster, will cause more accidents and avoidable road rage.
Give people time to adapt, be clear about what’s happening, and it will still bring speeds down.
Of course, not as much in ticket revenues. Then again, a sensible country would not allow police forces to keep fines, because that’s fucking insane.





Not gonna take advice about policing from any US politician ever.
