Judge to village: No cameras
Quote:CINCINNATI — A southwestern Ohio judge yesterday ordered a halt to a speeding-ticket blitz in a village that installed traffic cameras, saying it’s “a scam” against motorists.
Elmwood Place is engaged in nothing more than a high-tech game of 3-Card Monty,” Ruehlman wrote, referring to a card game used by con artists. “It is a scam that motorists can’t win.”
The village began using the cameras in September, resulting in 6,600 speeding citations in the first month, triple the number of village residents. Revenue that is shared with the company that operates the cameras quickly topped $1 million.
