"Nowhere was it more apparent than on Geneva Avenue between Prague Street and Brookdale Avenue, where one camera averaged 1,779 violations a day, according to the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency. Another camera on Bryant Street, between Second and Third streets, zapped 944 speeding drivers a day."

Nearly TWO THOUSAND speeding violations in one day, in the heart of a major city. These people drive like morons.

I much prefer speed traps to red light cameras that are often predatory and don’t make intersections safer.

None of that nonsense. Implementing actual, physical traffic-calming infrastructure is where it's at. And bollards. Lots of bollards.

We just need walkable cities and to gradually increase to acreage of car-free zones.
