    Re: Speed Traps - open and looking

    Some departments ask the local networks to report where they're clocking people on the morning news.


    I agree with the premise that a Category of this nature merely increases the awareness of the problem rather than promoting breaking the law.  Like the similar Locationless Cache, I thought it poked more fun at the people that got busted rather than a means to figure out how to "cheat the system".  I no more think a Category of this sort promotes breaking the law, than the Infamous Crime Scenes promotes or glamorizes murder and mayhem.

    The concerns over privacy/terrorist concerns and for the safety of the Officers I completely agree with.  I can't imagine there being similar concerns for automated intersection cameras since those are usually well documented and usually well known to locals.
