It’s insane the lengths that some people will go to save a few seconds on their commute, while also endangering others.

    As I understand it, China just has cameras on every street because their goal is to decrease traffic violations and not just generate ticket revenue.

    This is correct. Traffic cameras are present on basically every street, and they are highly visible, preceded by a road sign, and your GPS audibly tells you about them. They also flash at you.

      Oh wow, warning flashes for green lights would be so helpful! There’s an intersection on the way to work where I live that has a four way stop, but at highway speeds. You have to hit the brakes hard when the light turns yellow or you’ll blow through when it turns red 😅
