There oughta be a law...
Dec. 2nd, 2013 06:16 pmI am now thoroughly convinced that the state of Maryland is only setting up highway work zones for speed camera fine collection. I have driven past the same work area daily for at least the past four months and cannot discern ANYTHING that has been done beyond setting up the jersey walls and reflector drums. It sure is paying dividends though; coming and going there are SUV-mounted money machines.
And if the camera enforcement is supposedly for worker safety, why are the vehicles still sitting there four hours after the crew has left for the day? The least this state and all the other ones employing this blatant ripoff can do is be honest about why the thrice-damned four-wheeled collection agencies are present; the only concern for worker safety is whether or not the state is liable in the event of an actual injury.
