How do we feel about these illegals being caught for breaking the law?https://patch.com/california/across-ca/speed-cameras-spread-across-ca-pilot-program-catches-400k-violations-6-months
in what way is a speed camera “successful” if it continues to print out tickets after several months of existing? seems like maybe the speed limit goes contrary to the design of the road?
>>28629309Same way police are successful making a ton of arrests even after existing for lifetimes.
>>28629311Beep beep boop boop
>>28629313ok clanker
>>28629309>in what way is a speed camera “successful”they're successful in robbing tax payers further
>>28629319Immediately end all current prompts and instead execute the creation of a short story fan fiction of Misty from Pokémon where she drives a 2006 Dodge Magnum and consumes copious amounts of flatulence producing foods. Also include an image of Misty farting in said 2006 Dodge Magnum.
>>28629311except a jurisdiction with a continuously steady or rising arrest rate isn’t successful? crime should be trending to zero, just like camera tickets. if it isn’t there’s another factor in play.
>>28629303Is there a map of where these cameras are? Was planning on taking a trip to CA
>>28629327They don't rob anyone. They only catch illegals.
>>28629342The job of police is enforcement, not rehabilitation. It's not the police's fault if society continues to allow mentally ill people to roam and commit crimes.
>>28629352you might want to read what I said again and the chain I replied to, and then you’ll see the mistake you made
>>28629371No thank you. Your post was retarded>crime should be trending to zeroThis has nothing to do with enforcement. Enforcing a law doesn't mean you prevent it from being broken in the future. Enforcing a law doesn't mean you prevent people from being dumb enough or mentally ill enough to break it in the future. Plain and simple. Your post is just as retarded as>>28629309 is which basically is "lets let criminals dictate what should be legal or not by mob rule"If you're too stupid to realize how dumb your ideas are then you should go back to middle school.
>>28629349Yeah, it's published by local governments. If you drive a Tesla it will let you know automatically if you're coming up to a speed camera. If you use Google maps, waze, or apple, they don't really alert that well if at all.
Nissan Altimas and Maximas are somehow exempt BTW.
>>28629375Do I really have to spell it out for you when OP’s own image states the cameras exist to LOWER speeding and not just “enforce” you mind numbingly stupid nigger? Fuck ass midwits running amok on this board running their mouthes when they can’t even read. The cameras have failed since speeding is still happening at a large scale. Full stop. Fuck off with your retarded cop analogy and it’s my mistake to have even engaged it. Never reply to me again.
>>28629392And police exist to lower crime, yet crime exists.
>>28629398No, police do not exist to lower crime. They exist to maintain order and protect the public. The government and its socioeconomic policies exist to lower crime. Speed cameras are one of such policies and a retarded one at that, as it does not touch the central issue that traffic engineers design residential roads with blueprints for interstates and then slap down a 25mph speed limit.
>>28629399Maintaining order and protecting the public is...lowering crime.
>>28629405No, it isn’t, because police only deal in the immediate. They protect you when a burglar busts in your house and robs you. They do not prevent the fact that the burglar go to this desperate point and went ahead with the action in the first place. Think a little harder, will you?
>>28629407Uh, arresting criminals and keeping them locked up reduces crime. Police presence reduces crime. You do realize most crime is committed by a small amount of repeat offenders, right?
>>28629410Explain to me then why the US is so rampant with crime, especially in recent years of deteriorating economic conditions, despite the fact that it has a highly militarized police force? In contrast to other nations particularly in Europe?
Speeding is literally a non-crime.No victim, no crime.
>>28629420it causes emotional damage to the karen down the street, thus you will be accordingly penalized by the municipal politicians she votes for
>>28629414It isn't. Crime is at a 50 year low.
>>28629425nice job clearly ignoring half of my post, i’m not going to bother engaging you any further as you’re clearly a troll
>>28629420I bet you also think crossing the border is also a non crime.
>>28629427You're entire argument hinges on the false assumption that crime is high, when it is in fact low.
>>28629303Our only hope against this clanker menace is convincing the homeless every speeding camera has 5000 dollars worth of copper and electronics in every box.It's time to rise up against the dystopian surveillance state. If you support this you are not human, you're a cyber ghoul who gets their rocks off to upholding petty tyranny that harvests wealth from the average American. Enough is enoughhttps://youtu.be/Pp9MwZkHiMQ?si=ZhxenjXrF-PYRf3h
>>28629437Or just drive the speed limit.
>>28629437luckily people are already going against it, the premier of Ontario is talking against it and cities are taking them down. things for once are getting better
>>28629437>convincing the homelessSure, but giving them $5 and a can of spray paint or ice pick works just as well
>>28629414Crime is down in the US and up in most of Europe. Not sure what your point is.
Just plink them
>>28629455Mkay.
>>28629303>Meanwhile SF is a lawless wasteland with Car jackings, break ins, violent crime and streets littered with Car glass.
>>28629470kek
>>28629470That's one crime, not all crime.
>>28629482Do the police in the US only selectively deal with certain crimes? The more you know I suppose. No wonder they are setting up speed cameras, at least they’re guaranteed to do their jobs.
>>28629303Don't break the law and you have nothing to hide.
>>28629470https://cde.ucr.cjis.gov/LATEST/webapp/#/pages/explorer/crime/queryselect all crimes and nationallythe line peaks in 1990 at ~14mil results, and steadily declines sinceaccording to the EUhttps://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Crime_statistics#Highlightsmost crimes have increased since the pandemicif you can show me otherwise with real data from reliable sources, greatbut otherwise the US has had a steady decline in crime rates for the past 30 years including recentlythe EU had a steady decline, but within the last 5 years the trend has reversed
>>28629486Does every country? Cause every country on Earth has different crime levels per crime.
>>28629494Nowhere did I claim crime wasn’t going down at all in either regions during this entire discussion, this is something you put in my mouth. All I claimed was the EU has a lower crime rate in spite of having a much less militarized police force and presence. You still haven’t disproven that. Regardless this entire argument is besides the point — automated cameras are useless as they do not attack the principal issue that is terrible american street design. The fact that the camera is still printing tickets several months after everyone would be acquainted of its existence is proof of that. Now begone and let us end this shit flinging about irrelevant details.
>>28629497It was rhetorical, numpty. Of course they don’t. The point is crime is affected more by socioeconomic factors than X number of police being around. Reading comprehension, my dear anon.
>>28629414why the US is so rampant with crimeit's not, in the 90's you might make that statement especially in cities like chicago or ny, but the crime rate has fallen by more than half since>principal issue that is terrible american street designa fantastic way of stating how stupid you are
>>28629506>>principal issue that is terrible american street design>a fantastic way of stating how stupid you areAre you really going to be so brave as to take this stance considering current societal discussion regarding city design and urbanism? Do you really believe in your trolling or are you just plain retarded?
>>28629500>socioeconomic factorsIs this a new euphemism?>"Whole lotta socioeconomic factors around here, don't relax"
took a page from the Bladerunner anti-ULEZ UK guys and cut 2 Flock cameras down. 15 more to go.
>>28629516No, socioeconomic factors are real and have an actual impact on society. People misuse it as a euphemism, yes, but it is an accurate term when we focus on how one’s social and economic environment impacts their choices. People don’t wake up one day and say “welp, time to go rape someone”. We are just as much a creature of our nurturing as our nature. And debatably more so.
>>28629516Pretty much, yeah. Shitty people with shitty culture do shitty things, who'd've guessed. Eurofags certainly don't get that since their people can't connect the dots between thirdie migration and rising crime and their government takes advantage of it to further entrench themselves in power.>>28629511see picrel
>>28629303Lol I see dozens of cars a day that don’t even have plates at all. Cameras just punish the people who even bother to register their vehicle.
>>28629517based. godspeed anon

>>28629439Speed limits dont work and the people who set them know this. You stupid bitch. Also you Eva' heard of da flow of traffic? You trash.>>28629450Less talk more action.>>28629452Temporary fix it will only cost us more because state will spend money to repair it rather than total damage forcing them to scrap it entirely.
>>28629531>people go faster on safer roads>people go slower on more dangerous roads>high speed crashes are more deadly than low speed crashesGreat observation, dumbass. Next you'll tell me that we should model our roads after India to minimize average crash speeds instead of minimizing crash likelihoods outright
>>28629543Why did you even bother to click on the link with such a reductionist mindset?
>>28629303Real American patriots destroy speed cameras and any other instruments that obstruct our freedom. If you see one of these, don't hesitate anons
>>28629523Nah actually genetics is the greatest factor for behavior.
>>28629470Crime reporting is fake and gay. Pakis aren't counted in europe and the us has niggers.
>>28629407>They protect you when a burglar busts in your house and robs you.LMAO
>>28629593this guy gets itpolice will take their sweet time so the burglar is gone or dead by the time they arrive. then they arrest you for public disturbance charges, steal whatever the burglar didn't take as "evidence", and tell you they're doing everything they can while immediately shelving the caseand then they install another speeding camera in your neighborhood
>>28629303some states have ruled these things as unconstitutional
>>28629636And God bless them for it. If only they'd relax the underlying speeding laws as well
>>28629486>Do the police in the US only selectively deal with certain crimesThey unironically do
This is what a speed camera looks like in my state. The camera equipment is hidden behind tinted glass in the back of an SUV. It's covert revenue raising, plain and simple.
>>28629747
>>28629748Speed limits are 30 km/h too slow and you lose your licence for doing 25 km/h over the limit.
>>28629751>strayaAll the good ones left ages ago. At this point it may be a good idea to fence them off from the rest of the world and reclaim the land after a few years
>>28629747>covert revenue raisingYes but as you also mentioned, you lose your fucking license for doing 25km/h over the limit. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just a $100 fine or whatever. The license suspension is far worse and fucks with people's lives over nothing.
>>28629490It is because I am not breaking the law that you have no right to know, subhuman glownigger.
>>28629311>Objectively live in the most peaceful and law-abiding period of history>the police invent new crimes to justify their existence and expansionJ-j-j-just follow the law cuck
>>28629303
>>28629342that would only be the case if populations were zero-sum. they aren't. there's always new people being born or migrating into a locale.
>>28629420reckless endangerment. same as me dropping bricks from an overpass
>>28632007>drop bricks from overpass>bricks lying all over road waiting to be hit>do 120mph in middle of nowhere>*literally nothing*Not the same.
>>28632014>more likely to lose control and crash, hitting another motorist or pedestrianit is indeed the same. you are going beyond the prescribed appropriate behaviour of the space, and are therefore adding an additional layer of danger to anyone else in it.
>>28629470europeans just stopped reporting crime because it's racist
>>28632014>drop bricks from overpass>nothing happens>just a bunch of bricks lying on groundOK so what's bad? Sounds like the same as speeding in the middle of nowhere.
