No, I just haven't seen any evidence red light cameras are effective.

Also I don't like everything being under camera surveillance, so I need a strong justification to be fine with more of it
Red light cameras may not be effective at making streets safer. But, they're nearly 100% effective at making people who run red lights pay fines. The first one would be amazing, but I'm happy to settle for the second one.

The problem is not the cameras then, but the fines. Should be proportional to net worth
