Re: “New contract process could result in more red light cameras in Denver,” Dec. 14 news story.
Millions of people in Colorado use public roadways, so it only makes sense that we do everything to make them as safe as possible. I have always been a supporter of road safety, even more so after being a passenger in a recent car wreck. And this recent proposition to add more red-light cameras in Denver is very welcome in my eyes.
If drivers are aware about the new cameras, it will force them to be more careful. Also, issuing a small fine for those who run red lights will make those drivers less likely to commit other traffic violations.
Adding cameras to busy intersections is a cost-effective way to reduce automobile accidents and vehicular deaths.
