[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the problem with trust is caused by the city being sneaky and lowering speed limits on roads that we have been driving on for years and then ticketing for going 36 mph on Wisconsin Ave.[/quote]

If you’re ticketed for going 36, I’m assuming the speed limit is 25? That’s about 40% over the limit, not insignificant. I’m not understanding how changing speed and having to see a posted sign is more sneaky than sneaky traffic lights changing or sneaky pedestrians crossing or sneaky cars pulling out into traffic. Driving actually requires you to…pay attention.[/quote]

It's the stop sign cameras that are the bigger problem. You can be completely stopped for several seconds, but if your bumper overhands the crosswalk even a little bit, you get a ticket, even if no one else is at the intersection. That kind of bullshit doesn't make anyone safer. [/quote]

Well, yeah. You are supposed to stop at the stop line, not in the crosswalk.
