It's time to increase fines from $85 to $500 for blocking the box on any and all intersections. Doing so would make it's safer for everyone including pedestrians.

I feel like at that point just raise the minimum speeding threshold for an auto ticket from the camera to lower the amount of tickets rather than have times of day where there are none being given out at all. Like donโ€™t advertise the threshold but just have it be a backend thing.

The problem is being pulled over is more effective then a photo radar ticket. Just the way we are wired immediate punishment for the act vs delayed.
