Hard to say. That study you linked mentions reductions in speed and crashes in the vicinity of the camera, which to me indicates that people are only slowing down because they know a camera is there. I suppose someone would have to do a study to see if speed cameras reduce speeds and crashes in areas where there aren't currently cameras, but have been in the past. Meaning that people are slowing down in areas where they think there might be cameras.

Don't you put that bad juju on Jimmy Carter
I think the sentiment against them stems from the fact that there are ways to reduce speeds without feeling like they're being used as a revenue stream.
Personally I like when there are warning signs saying "Speed camera in use ahead" since it has the effect of slowing down traffic and not feeling like a "gotcha" moment.
I wonder if they censor mentions of Lemmy or if all the people that left for Lemmy are gone and no one noticed. Like, why are people still there and putting up with more of Spez's bullshit? Do they not know they can just leave?
That is Trump's tactic, which worked wonders when debating against Biden. I was glad when Harris shut that shit down by basically saying "I told you he was going to spout a bunch of bullshit, anyway my point is..."
"If God dwells inside us, like some people say, I sure hope he likes enchiladas, because that’s what he’s getting."
I was a consultant for most of my career until recently where I switched to a salary employee.
This is seriously insane to me. I start getting paid as soon as my ass hits my chair. And when I was working in an office, it was as soon as my foot went in the door.
I can't imagine interacting with the public on behalf of a company without being paid for it. Wtf.
Godspeed
The Lemmy no poop challenge memes were when I realized this was where I belonged.
Orson Scott Card actually weighed in on a simple way to determine if something is fantasy or sci-fi since he writes both:
The difference between science fiction and fantasy…is simply this, science fiction has rivets, fantasy has trees.

I went back to Voyager, which is a shame because I really like Sync and pay for the premium version. But yeah, it's completely unusable right now.
