NDP Wants to Resurrect Failed Photo Radar Plan"
“Only the NDP would want to resurrect a plan to use police as tax collectors rather than having them on the street fighting crime and targeting problem drivers.” Solicitor General Kash Heed

Red light camera ticketing will soon be here.
There's nothing to stop the BC Government from starting the mail-out for speeding on any highway of BC where these devices are embedded in the roads. The only things that are missing, is the camera, the 35 year Concessionaire contract and Canada Post.
An informed public will know where to avoid the tickets and by that learning process hopefully their driving habits will be applied evenly throughout the Province.
Problem is, where the public saw the NDP and their Radar Camera Vans as an infringement on their rights and the BC Liberals promising to rid the Province of these devices and were elected in a landslide victory........... its taken ten years for us to come full circle, and the Cameras are back in full force.
