Default Don't drive in MD!$$(Doesn't everyone speed?)$$

Monkey County just saw how much DC was making in redlight cameras and
wanted a piece of that action.

But I have to admit, Florida Avenue by Galludet used to be a dragstrip.
Now it just barely crawls along at 35mph.

They would probably save money by just putting strobe lights at
intersections instead of real cameras. Once the strobe at 14th and U
went out, everybody went back to running the light.

I'm not aware of them doing it - have you read anything different.

Big State Troopers position themselves alongside the fast lanes and
motion miscreants over or send cruisers to chase them down. They also
use cruisers in traffic and I believe helicopters.
