Red Light Cameras in Chicago

[From Police ask for OK on red-light cameras]

There are lots of reports emerging about the effectiveness of red light cameras. Over the next few years, we should get a good handle on the effectiveness of these cameras. However, I was piqued by this story since it had statistics for Chicago. I don't think I have seen the city release statistics before, so I thought it was noteworthy.

Chicago documented a 70 percent reduction in crashes at intersections where red-light enforcement is used.
