Correct. They're are able to withstand a 12 gauge shotgun, 9mm pistol, and projectiles of similar nature. You would need a kick ass rifle, or physically climb up and take it down.

Nothing but compliance; how the fuck is anyone suppossed to demand that our government work for us and not against us if everybody is so fucking unconditionally compliant.
They're too busy watching some terrible "reality" tv show most likely.

i for see abunch of rear end collisions from people slaming there breaks trying not to get the ticket.

What happens if you get stuck on the white line. Like your in bumper to bumper traffic and that happens. Or if a emergency vehicle forces you to cross it to give them room?

Alot of this is bogus.

Red light camera urban legend circulating through Hillsborough

You will only be ticketed for going ALL the way through the light not if you just stop on the line, Turning right on red will only net you a ticket if your going over 15mph.

Are the Temple Terrace Cameras this way as well? Or do you have to stop at the white line on red?

He was giving you his personal moral code on what he personally would enforce. Not all officers think the same, nor enforce the law in the same manner.

No one "wants" to run a red at high speed.
If you have not noticed, over time, the lines have been moved back from the intersection, effectively lengthing the distance you must cover.

The yellow is quicker/shorter, and the red light is longer.
Effectively giving you more distance to cover and less time to do so.
Your attorney will want to know that.....it's possible that in some locations it will be impossible to clear a lengthened intersection in the time available.

There was no significant number of deaths, percentage-wise
taking place before the camera installations. There WILL be a significant amount of revenue generated after their installation. Regardless of all the public relations spinning being done.-Bob

They're just out to make more money.... either way we're fucked.

What I can't understand is why the fuck do I get a ticket for no seat belt, but a helmet is not required on a motorcylce in the state of Florida, but it's the law to where a fucking helmet on a god damn bicycle here.......
