Dear Knoxville
Blake writes us a letter on red light cameras:
A recent study found that accidents have gone up dramatically (83 percent) at the intersections where cameras had been installed. However, both accidents and tickets issued have gone down by half after the yellow light timing was increased by one second, and we know that a city hates doing that due to the loss in revenue. In fact, Ft. Collins delayed adding other cameras because of the drop in revenue (from $3000 to $1125).
It’s never been about accidents. It’s about cash. Blake recommends we buy PhotoBlocker.

[…] With Knoxville taking the deadly and money making option of putting in redlight cameras a question arises. Does Knoxville have some nice cliffs? […]
