Abstract

Traffic cameras take out discretionary officer involvement and create strong incentives for drivers to follow the rules, but Maryland State Delegate David Moon tells Sunil Dagupta that Montgomery County’s school bus camera program, which generates millions in fines, does not make streets safer and talks about what can be done. He was finally able to get data and analyze the top-grossing locations for bus camera tickets. Local news about pedestrian safety and comparison of the Silver and Purple Lines. Music from Silver Spring’s own power pop band, The Airport 77s.
