Winnipeg The Evidence is Clear. Photo Radar is a Scam!
Facts
Construction Zones Make Up Only 0.1% of Total Collisions For All Of Manitoba! Want Proof? Click Here!
The City of Winnipeg's Traffic Collision Statistics Don't Even Have A Category For Construction Zones!
The City of Winnipeg ignored the Highway Traffic Act and Their Own Bylaw by Enforcing a Reduced Speed Limit When No Workers Were Present!
Aggressively Enforcing Construction Zones Has Increased Slumping Ticket Numbers and generated approximately $23,595,720.00 of Extra Revenue In Just Two Years.
They Employ only a few People Locally and Take Millions of Dollars Away From Your Local Economy and Give Nothing Back!
They Don't Invest or Donate in Your Community.
They don't care if there's a Poor Economy.
They Don't Even Care If You Beat Your Ticket.
They get their Money Regardless!
That's Why Your City Doesn't Want You To Fight Your Ticket.
If You Win Or Reduce Your Fine
They Lose Money!
That's Right!
Camera Companies insure in their Contracts That They Get Paid Regardless of How many Tickets Are Issued.
This makes Cities Resort to Sneaky Tactics to produce extra tickets.
If ticket numbers drop The Cities make less Money and could end up paying the Camera Company out of Pocket.
Why do you think they hide Mobile Radar Units at Construction Zone speed changes? Even at night when no one is around!
Why do you think they set low Speed Thresholds?
Why do you think they want Mobile Radar units to be able to set up anywhere?
Why do you think they are testing Cameras in Bus Diamond Lanes?
It's not for Safer Streets!
The 'Safety' Reason no longer Fools Anyone. People know it's about Revenue.
The Fact that The City does not Experiment with Non Revenue Generating Ways to make the Streets safe Proves It!
Several Studies Show Longer Amber Times Virtually Eliminate:
Collisions!
Red Light Running!
Excess Speeds trying to Beat The Light!
Why isn't The City Testing Longer Amber Times?
Taken from the Winnipeg Free Press Article by Bruce Owen,October 30, 2001.
Winnipeg Police Service Traffic Patrol Sgt. Jon Butcher, who's Leading the WPS's efforts to install Red Light and Photo Radar Cameras, said Adjusting Amber Lights Would Ruin the Photo Enforcement Program.
What's Retired Sgt. Butcher Doing Now?
He's Head of Sales for The Camera Company in Canada.
Speed by Cameras while Impaired and Are Not Stopped.
Speed by In Stolen Vehicles and are Not Stopped.
Don't care about Paying the Fine. Most are not Responsible Citizens.
Good Drivers;
Get trapped in 'Dilemma Zones' by minimum or shortened Amber Times.
Make up the Majority of Tickets issued.
Get Caught at speeds slightly above a Low Threshold on Streets which should have a higher limit. (Example: Driver doing 63 in what appears to be a 60 zone, however it's an un posted 50 zone.)
Have The Money to Pay a Ticket.
Are Decent Hardworking People Just Like You. People Who Can't afford $200 + for a Minor Ticket. But they also can't risk not having a Drivers Licence or Insurance.
Are People Who Are Tired of Being Victimized By This Unfair System!
Dangerous High Speeds Make Up Less Then 1% of Photo Tickets Issued.
Yet they're used in 100% of the News Headlines.
Other Cities Have Banned Photo Radar

When people band together Governments are forced to take action.
Stop being fooled into believing that Photo Enforcement is being used for Your Safety. All it's being used for it to Take Hard Earned Money from the pockets of Good Drivers and Vehicle Owners.
If you don't feel this issue is Important.
Then do nothing.
That's Exactly What They Want You To Do!
Complacent Attitudes helped them bring Photo Enforcement To The City.
It helped them Build up their Fleet of Mobile and Red Light Cameras. It will also allow them to bring Cameras to the Diamond Lanes.
