Yeah photo radar is for public safety, so find a road in a rural setting with a speed limit of 70 and hide the van behind something. Those people diving 82 are a danger to society making photo radar neccessary. I mean you couldn't place it in a school zone at 3:00 and make sure it's visible so everyone sees it and slows down....there's no money to be made making a school zone safe.

Or if there is a cop in. School zone they always hide at the extremity of it waiting to get the guy just coming in or speeding up to get out...no need to enforce the limit where more children are actually present.

Spare me the safety BS and come clean that it's 100% a revenue thing. In St.Albert it's about public safety too...yet they still need an excuse like half the tickets were issued to out of town drivers.
