Not necessarily at traffic lights (although im curious about that too) but the ones that are way up above the major highways.

I was used to being able to view the problem areas of the highways on my computer before heading out. I wasn't sure if there as anything like that here.

Thanks!

Yes, they have both. Though, the traffic light cameras have been disabled due to some stupid law. The traffic cams should be here:

Traffic, yes, but only on I-85 and I-77 for now:

Stop light and speed cams: We used to, until the city figured out that they weren't getting their promised cut from the company operating them. Out they went.

Not soon enough to suit me. Much to my surprise I got a cute little picture in the mail of the tail end of my BMW going through a red light; cost me $50.00. I didn't even remember doing it.

Personally I think all those cams in the whole of the USA should be taken down. They are unconstitutional anyway, because you are suppose to be able to face your accuser in court, but you can't face a camera. But either way, because they are unconstitutional you can easily fight them in court and you usually win.

I'm with you. Big brother is totally out of control. Having cameras watching us all the time is about the most un-american thing there is.

Some people don't mind having their civil liberties taken away from them I suppose. It's sad to watch.
