If approved, municipalities would be required to post more warning signage for ASE and red-light cameras. Officials said cities and towns would require public disclosure on camera locations “to improve transparency.”

Maddening. If motorists are following traffic laws, what difference would this make, because it sure as shit isn't about “transparency”?

This only benefits those who chose to break the law, and telling them where they can or won't be caught breaking the law does nothing for public safety.

"slow down for 30 seconds, there's a camera here! Go as fast as you want after this block."
