Does the American public support the use of photo radar?
According to a nationwide survey of 6,000 drivers aged 16 and older, more than 7 in 10 drivers thought it was a good idea to use photo enforcement devices to reduce speeding and running red lights and stop signs (1997, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). A higher number of drivers supported photo devices in locations where crashes frequently occur (4 out of 5) and in school zones (9 out of 10).
