Three separate articles, all linked: March 23, about state trooper Christopher Gadd, killed by a high-speed driver; March 23, concerning Andrea Hudson and three kids killed by a high-speed driver; and March 27, concerning a brand new legislation to allow visitors cameras in Washington.
Visitors cameras could not have prevented these explicit deaths however they are going to undoubtedly forestall others. I do know from my very own expertise that getting a ticket from a visitors digital camera will have an effect on conduct. Whereas driving in Bellevue close to a college my consideration lapsed, and I handed by means of a college zone over the velocity restrict. Flash, click on! Costly ticket!
Now I’m very conscious whereas driving close to colleges. Know-how will assist make up for an absence of officers on our streets. This legislation is lengthy overdue.
