I don't get this big brother worry. In exactly what way does this invade our privacy?

But if you're headed out in the afternoon, it will be nice to peak at the highway to see if you should go a different route. The big brother possibility is a little disconcerting.

Camera feeds can be accessed on the web, and the local morning shows use them during their traffic reports. Not sure if the WASDOT cams have tape running or not.

If an ax occurs don't a dozen or so ppl call via cell phone to report it? And exactly what the hell are they gonna do if traffic gets backed up?...have a message board telling everyone already stuck in traffic that traffic isnt moving? Sounds like a waste of money.
