Mayor Bloomberg Wants a Red Light Camera on Every Corner

  "I think we should have them on every corner if we could" of those red light cameras that catch motorist who go through red lights. The mayor believes that lives could be saved and the city should be able to have many more red light cameras.Currently there are 150 red light cameras in New York City and the proposal is to go to 225. The bill has passed in the State Senate, but is in the black hole in the State Assembly. Mayor Bloomberg would also like to publish the names of the offenders, but the ticket for a red light camera goes to the owner of the vehicle not the driver. 

  This brings into the city coffers over 52 million dollars in revenue, and even more when the penalties are added in for those who do not pay on time.
