Coming to Charlack...gee, there's a surprise.

Although given how much time Charlack spends with a car sitting on the
side of 170 having a camera won't increase the amount of time each that
speed is monitored very much.

So, said another way, if everybody pays money into the road system like
they should be doing, the road will be speed-derestricted? Of course,
because if the cost of driving in the Americas were increased through
petrol taxes and licensing expenses, there would be less need to use
underposted speed-limits to increase revenue for the governments.

I wonder if a camera to catch Left Lane Blockers is also being considered.

How do you measure it? How do you record it in such a way that an
enforcement officer can sign off on it?

Don't know, but they seem to manage just fine giving out lots of
tickets for improperly being in the left lane. Many roads have exits
or left turn lanes on the left and one needs to move over well in
advance due to heavy traffic. But do so too soon and you get a ticket.
