Created by C.W. on October 21, 2014

The District of Columbia issued more than 700,000 speed camera tickets last fiscal year, netting the city about $78.8 million dollars. In many cases, the tickets issued from speed cameras are to unsuspecting drivers who if had prior warning to the placement of many speed cameras would have more intensive to reduce their speeds which could result in less accidents and loss of life resulting my pedestrians being struck by speeding vehicles. If the purpose of these cameras is to slow drivers down why are so many cameras unmarked and at times completely obstructed from the views of many drivers? In some instance speed camera have been hidden behind utility poles, trees and other objects that obstruct the view of the camera, these cameras should be clearly identifiable to drivers.
