Good luck to you.  Here in Fort Collins the matter was debated for
months, the city council voted it in, and the machine became active
(real tickets) this month.

I don't like it because it's inhuman (literally), inflexible, and
punitive in intent, that is, it does not address the underlying reasons
WHY people might be speeding, including limits set unreasonably low.
