I don't think Vigilante justice is the way to go. Vigilante justice certainly is criminal and is bound to get you locked up in prison. Well then I guess it’s agree to disagree then.

As far as for turning on red I have seen my share of accidents and investigated accidents that involved drivers that turn on red with out stopping! And for Schaumburg not writing tickets for drivers blowing red lights shame on them.Whats their reason???? I don't believe the cameras increase safety or prevent accidents, but it's time for ignorant careless drivers to get citations for blowing red lights,turning without stopping and crossing the pedestrian cross walk every day! Yes I highly believe turning on red you should get a citation! You don't know how many times I have gotten the green light and as soon as I move forward some moron turns in front of me at a close distance! I'm at the point I will take justice into my own hands and teach this ignorant people a lesson!

The overwhelming majority of comprehensive studies on the subject show that they make intersections more dangerous. I urge you to look at the studies <a href="http://www.schaumburgfreedom.com/public-safety/what-are-red-light-cameras-really-used-for/" rel="nofollow">we have compiled at this site</a> and see if it changes your opinion. Secondarily, in Schaumburg approximately 98% of the tickets weren't written for blowing red lights, they were for turning right on red. Department of Transportation statistics show that on average a driver would have to drive to Jupiter and back before experiencing an accident due to someone illegally turning right on red. Jupiter at its closest point is 370 million miles away from earth! To put that in perspective if you drove 100 miles a day, every day, for over 10,000 years you could expect to experience 1 accident from someone illegally turning right on red. Certainly, you must agree that there is no justification for tickets on the overwhelming of Right Turn on Red occurrences.

It's about time that ignorant and stupid drivers start getting tickets for blowing red lights,turning on red without stopping and crossing into the pedestrian cross walks! I'm at the point I'll take matters into my owns hands if one of these morons hit me or cause a near accident! Foolish to vote no!
