Anyone who has read this blog for a long time knows that I have long been an opponent of red light cameras. There are cities that have used dead cops to write tickets and cameras that have written tickets to stationary cars. Now it comes out that cities in Florida are shortening red yellow lights because it doubles the number of drivers that can’t stop in time.
EDITED TO FIX TYPO.

I think they are shortening the "Yellow" light times.
I'm not a fan of the Red Light cameras either. The temptation to fiddle with the lights is strong, they don't work to reduce accidents/injuries and the revenue is often going to companies more than the cities.
