Skeets ahead or behind?

Thanks.

This reads as a classic project management failure. Lack of stakeholder engagement impacting the forecasting of requirements, leading to insufficient resources allocated, human and material. Lack of training prior to rollout. Inadequate quality control mechanisms relating to vendor performance. Poor monitoring post implementation leading to slow corrective actions. All of the above led to inefficiencies causing costs to exceed revenues.

Self sustaining budget was a secondary goal. The paper does not delve into the stated primary goal, increased safety. Were speeds and or accidents reduced. If accidents were reduced, were costs related to emergency services and infrastructure repair also reduced. What was the total impact to municipalities budget, not just the judicial system.

Where they winning cases on merit or just so many cases filled that the court could not process the number of cases? I would be interested to read up on that if you had something on that.

I know of a situation where a municipality had not done the required traffic survey to justify the speed limit. In that case, if challenged in court, tickets get dismissed. One individual knew the law, was constantly cited, kept going to court to get the tickets dismissed. Eventually the individual filed a RICO suit against the government that forced them to do the traffic study, which resulted in the speed limit being raised.

I like to think that he forgets, keeps trying and then makes a new post about it

If only there was a way to remotely monitor and cite speeders

Another reason for a dash cam.

All true. It could be a positive step but very small change by itself. Police are one part of criminal justice system that need massive reform.

In California the duration of yellow is determined by a formula incorporating the roads speed limit. If yellow light duration is less than the formula would set, the traffic ticket is dismissed. I’m guessing most states have a similar law.

Going the posted speed limit is not going slow.

Speed is a leading factor in collisions resulting in serious injuries and death.

Force = Mass times Acceleration.

Red Green salted the Iced path, at least he’s handy.

If speed cameras are less biased than humans when issuing tickets, I see them as a fairer method of speed enforcement. Also safer for BIPOC individuals to receive a ticket in the mail, as opposed to a roadside traffic stop.

My experience as a janitor while in college, later in life as a youth sports fields director, corroborated by friends who work for state parks; men’s bathrooms more vandalism/breakage, women’s bathrooms more bodily secretions on floor, walls and ceilings.
