Photo Radar Phun

The Arizona Republic had a good article about Photo Radar this morning. It was two pages long, but you can read the abbreviated version of it online here. I kinda like the idea that Dave Vontesmar is (allegedly) pulling : wearing a monkey mask while driving to work. Yet, as much as I detest Photo Radar, having someone (okay, technically, someone's vehicle) accrue 37 speeding tickets smacks of significantly, deliberately, and routinely speeding, and I'm not real keen on that.
.
I still think the second-best way to combat Photo Radar is to register your vehicle in your spouse's name, and vice versa. The best way, of course, is to put it on the ballot, and let the people decide if they want it in their neighborhood.
.
Oh, and our bullsh*t quote from this article is :
.
"Our whole goal is not to issue tickets, just to get people to drive the speed limit," Lt. Jeff King said.
.
Yeah, right Jeff. It's all about the money. Dollars-for-donuts, we call it.
