That's a little excessive to have one at the 400 & 600 block of South Rolling Rd. If they are going to do all that then they might as well just make the fine $80 instead of $40 cause chances are if one camera gets them then so is the other. Double the fines and double the repairs just another way to waste tax dollars!

i already got one and it was from going around another car - i had to excel to get past them as they were creeping along

If people do not want to recieve tickets...its simple. Don't speed! I walk my children to Hillcrest to attend school and we have almost been hit so many times at the crosswalk going across Hilton. People fly, and don't even slow for that sharp turn. They also make rights without looking for children in the crosswalk. Even the school busses speed. Vroom Vroom...you self important jerks! Risking my kid's lives so you can be on time is just so important!

Is there any proof that these things actually promote safety? I'm Googling around for some stats or anything and I can't find them. There are plenty of stats saying that they make money for the county and the companies that produce them, but I can't find stats saying they actually promote safety. If anyone has any that would give me some peace because otherwise it feels like a big brother type scam and I'm sad that Catonsville is becoming like D.C.

The other night, radio news reported an INCREASE in pedestrian deaths in Maryland for 2011 over prior years. Both drivers and pedestrians are at fault. My short commute to work usually includes dodging jaywalkers in the middle of the road, far from crosswalks. Our great state remains one of the most dangerous states for Pedestrians. Much of the older infrastructure in Maryland neighborhoods no longer support pedestrian safety as many more people are crammed into living areas while auto traffic has increased drastically. Use the camera tickets to pay for more school buses, and/or change the schools start time to earlier or later to avoid opening when traffic is heaviest. While autos and Pedestrians are polar opposites and it will be difficult to find a perfect cohesive solution, just one speeder and jaywalker is a recipe for disaster. Speed Cameras clearly do not prevent speeding, as is evident in the amount of money they collect for the County, nor do they prevent accidents. They are purely a revenue generator that provide the community with a false sense of safety.
