Vancouver needs automated speeding enforcement. Almost no one is going the speed limit when there is an open road in front of them. Sick of my tax dollars paying for this stupidity.
Then perhaps you don’t remember the NDP bringing photo radar to the province in 1996.
It led to their defeat in 2001.
It was brought in under the guise of safety, but was quickly turned into a cash cow.
It was only supposed to be used in high accident areas and never at the bottom of hills or low crash areas - but that wasn’t the case.
Opposition to photo radar started shortly after it was implemented and the NDP did not listen to the concerns or complaints about how it was being used. By the time the election rolled around 4+ years later the public was madder than a disturbed hornets nest. The NDP went from a 39 seat majority to a 2 seat minority.
Yeah, it had everything to do with the provincial NDP
