alt Hacker NewsWow, that's a huge problem with that red light camera program then. The drives that run red lights around me clearly don't care much for minor consequences. The point needs to be to identify the sociopathic drivers and get them off the road.

You mistakenly believe that these camera systems are not functioning exactly as intended: they're a revenue stream. If they ended up shutting down the offenders that revenue stream would dry up. The sociopath you've identified is called a whale instead.

In my jurisdiction, the GP point is irrelevant because the biggest problem drivers just ignore the fines [1].
It's very common to just have fake plates / registration, with the plan in the case of an accident to just bail out and run.
