Coddling Criminals

For the life of me I can’t understand lawmakers like Sen. Bill Bolling, R-Hanover, who insist on coddling red light runners.

"I do not support the use of cameras at intersections," he said.

"In my judgment, this is an inappropriate infringement on individual civil liberty."

Well, in that case, let’s take cameras out of bank lobbies. After all, they’re an infringement of the right to rob, I guess. Or how about searches at airports. Don’t hijackers have some rights, too?

I do not support cameras at intersections because more than one person in a family or among friends use more than one car. My point is if your catch someone running a red light and see their tag and sent them a ticket, they may have not been driving the car at the time. Just because you can see the car does not mean you can 100% identify the driver. A waste of our courts time I think. April Cook
