“The South Dakota state House passed a bill that would ban both red-light cameras and speeding cameras by a whopping 69-1 margin. A Missouri state House panel on Monday heard testimony on a similar bill. A measure has been proposed in Iowa to require cities to justify their need for photo enforcement cameras, and a 2013 bill to ban them outright is still pending in Ohio. Opponents of the red-light cameras span the partisan divide, complaining of invasions of privacy or back-door tax increases — even that the red-light cameras result in more fender-benders at intersections. In some states, the ACLU is a prime driver behind camera-banning legislation; in others, it’s the tea party.”
