Do traffic cameras cause rear end collisons?

instead of going thru the yellow light.Do traffic cameras cause rear end collisons?
"you can proceed through a yellow light as long as you complete before the light turns red"



Unfortunately, human skill in predicting multiple variables, (time left on the yellow, distance needed to clear the intersection, speed of other cars in front of you) takes time to develop. This skill is often complicated by other factors, like weather, the physical state of the driver, number of distractions, etc. When municipalities monitor human drivers with "perfect" computerized cameras, the human driver will, on average, fail the test. Drivers who would normally drive safely will overcompensate to remain within the limits of the camera system. Drivers who would normally drive recklessly will further endanger the safety of others through rear-end collisions; they will assume that other drivers share in their degree of skill in driving through yellow lights.



Answer: Hire human observers (police) to catch lawbreakers.



There are those who run a red light because they have poor skill and there are those who run a red light because they are lawless. Both receive the same penalty, only, the latter is much more of a risk to other drivers.
yes traffic cameras are the work of the devil destroy them allDo traffic cameras cause rear end collisons?
No, stupid drivers cause collisions. Pay attention, and slow down when you see a yellow light.
Even if they did, it would be worth having quite a few more rear end collisions to cut down on t-bones caused by people running lights.Do traffic cameras cause rear end collisons?
Poor driving habits cause accidents, not cameras.
Traffic cameras may be part of it but it certainly stems from the abilty and alertness of the driver. People often blame techonolgy, Don't blame blame technology if you fail to pay attention.
It is both unattentive drivers and people following too closely.



It is quite legal to go through a yellow light. It takes an attentive driver to know if he/she is too close to be able to safely stop.
No idiot drivers who slam on their brakes instead of going through yellow lights do.
Poor inattentive driving causes collisions, not traffic cameras. YOU may proceed through a yellow light as long as you complete before the light turns red.
Its the idiot slamming on his brakes that causes problems.
right every one get the still saws out and lets put a end to these evil twisted things.. lets see who can cut down the most hehehehehe hahahahahah
i like shooting the lens with a pellet gun, they break and usually shater on the second shot. then it takes the city 2 months to fix it again. i tried tape and the workers peeled it off and cleaned it 2 or 3 days later and i`d rather shoot it than paint it.
why would you allow yourself to drive in a manner consistant to almost haveing or having a rear end collision. You shluld be able to control your vehcile at all times
