[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to consider DC's traffic cameras as predatory, but while I live in Maryland, I always pay my tickets. I have started working in DC and travel frequently down South Dakota Ave, where there are a number of cameras. I have become a better driver because I am following the 25 miles-per-hour speed limit. South Dakota Ave (and so many others) are busy streets, but they are neighborhood streets. This is where people live; we don't need to be tearing through people's neighborhoods.[/quote]
Historically two of the highest revenue cameras in the city are the K St underpass and E St expressway. Pedestrians are not allowed in either location. [/quote]

The K Street Underpass has pedestrian crossings either side of it. Tunnels in general are death traps. It’s completely understandable why the city wouldn’t want drivers flying along that stretch of road.[/quote]
The camera is intentionally at the bottom of the hill. It’s uphill both directions up. It’s nothing but revenue gimmick to catch commuters, like the cameras on New York Ave, and everyone knows it. [/quote]
