“Redflex Traffic Systems, an Australian company, began issuing automated citations on Oakland streets in 2008. The city has been so focused on revenue that the police department officials who manage the contract with Redflex became irate when the transportation staff decided to add one second to the duration of yellow signal timing at the photo enforced intersections. The total number of violations immediately went down 56 percent with the longer yellows. This infuriated Oakland Police Lieutenant Anthony Banks Sr, who was in charge of managing the program vendor.”
