Speed Cameras

Chad hates these things. Not because he speeds though. He's on the road all day long and has to deal with them daily. The problem isn't really the cameras, it's that people don't pay attention when they're driving and when they see the cameras, they automatically freak out and slam on their brakes before they look at their speedometer to see how fast they're going. We understand why the cameras are there and they aren't a bad idea but if people were paying attention to how fast they are driving in the first place, we wouldn't need them.

My mom isn't a fan of them, considering she got one in her rental car when she was here for our wedding... the day they turned them on!!!

However, I do like the cameras that are at intersections. I got into a pretty bad car accident about 6 years ago and since then, they have put up a camera at that intersection.

  2. Welcome to the world of policing. If there were smart criminals (or drivers who paid attention, like we are supposed to) I would be out of a job (since you are close to Mexico I will translate JOB to YOB).
