I assume police could ticket for unsafe driving, but what I’m suggesting is that automatic enforcement couldn’t issue a ticket simply for speeding as such.
It’s not really a big deal and doesn’t prevent automatic enforcement; you just need to lower the limit to whatever speed you want to use for automated enforcement. I started discussing this because Dan was complaining that the City wouldn’t use automated enforcement to enforce a speed slower than the limit. I’m just saying that of course they wouldn’t. The core of his complaint remains: the roads department will use just about any excuse not to do something (except when they don’t, which makes it even weirder — it’s not like they’re consistently and malevolently anti-pedestrian, just sometimes).
All true, sure.
