I am sure the 2,630 are timed tickets only. [2hr limit].  You don't need cameras for handicapped, fire routes, No Parking zones, Bike Lanes, etc.

Good point, thanks for the reminder. That would actually make sense given the emphasis in the article. It’s still something like $20 in capital costs per ticket, which seems excessive, but maybe over time that will average down to a more reasonable value.

And of course I do recognize the difficulty in counting tickets as a measure of effectiveness. A perfectly effective enforcement regime would issue 0 tickets because nobody would violate the rules. The goal isn’t tickets but good behaviour.
