Wow, one cop set up shop and was handing out tickets for red-light runners at one intersection in Orlando today. He got 45 people for running red lights in only 2 1/2 hours. Doesnt this tell us something about how bad it is here? Yikes!

Jeez....I am so glad that they are doing this. I fully support the red light cameras that are popping up all over. People really need to slow the f**k down around here!

Maybe with long useless lights, and high gas prices people dont want to sit around all day at a light?

When I goto work at 3 in the morn I run the first 3 lights that just sit red out in the middle of no where.

No kidding! I think there's too many slow drivers here especially on one-lane roads like Boggy Creek. Most people driving here would not last one day in Dallas! If Orlando wants to be a big city than start driving like it! Peace
