Speed cameras VS Red light cameras

[Bridgette01]

Every morning on my drive to work I see people running red lights, blatant red lights. I find it annoying, well, it makes me angry more like it. If the governments are so hell bent on road safety, why are they concentrating SO much on speed cameras and (it appears) so little on red light cameras. Dont get me wrong, I do not have a problem with speed cameras but I would like to see my tax dollars spent more wisely. I haven't researched where accidents are most likely to happen. A straight bit of road (speed camera territory) or at an intersection (red light camera territory) If I had to guess, I would say intersections.

I know many of you are dead against speed cameras and fair enough. This thread is asking how do you feel about red light cameras. How would you feel if they were installed at every intersection. Would this actually reduce the amount of people running red lights. Are there currently enough red light cameras installed. Are they simply revenue raising. I am interested in your opinions, thanks.
