The Record's Road Warrior columnist wrote an interesting piece this week on traffic cameras. The column made the case in favor of traffic cameras, disputing arguments that they cause accidents.
Aside from the debate over whether such cameras are a good idea, the column also pointed out that with 12,000 cameras expected to be installed throughout New Jersey, only one municipality in Bergen and Passaic Counties will use them. That would be Wayne Township at Hamburg Turnpike and Black Oak Ridge Road.
After the legislature permitted the use of cameras, the use of traffic cameras has led to criticism. But although the cameras are slow to arrive to North Jersey, expect the debate to gain speed.
