...here in LA there's a segment of the population who like to "get away with
it".
Some even think they can outrun a metrolink subway train in a normal car.
Each year in our fair city several people are killed weaseling across the
tracks in front of unstoppable tonnage .. why? ...because they think THEY
will get away with it. The cars are barely recognizable as scrap metal. Whole
cars of people die. But it happens over and over. I guess in a way - they get
away with it.. they don;t get "caught" exactly... I mean, how can you give a
ticket to a dead person?

traffic cams
will stop people running red lights

only out of fear of being caught

BUT

only if they are at ALL intersections. All.

When surveillaence is everywhere what will we do to feel like we are getting
away with something?
