IMAGINE THAT: YELLOW/RED LIGHTS. ANYWAYS, YOU COULD BE FINED!



We should start exploring Tampa Bay walking or biking, a must-do idea for local urban developers and legislators; otherwise, we are just going to need to get a part-time job to paid traffic violation fees.  As reported by Fox News: “A bill setting statewide guidelines for the use of automatic cameras to fine motorists who run red lights has gotten a yellow light in the Florida House. The measure (SB 325) was delayed Friday so the House could tend to other matters and may have to wait until next week for a vote. It would authorize the cameras that dozens of cities have already installed on questionable legal authority. Violators would be fined $158. It's named for 30-year-old Mark Wandall, who was killed near Bradenton by a red-light runner in 2003.  His wife, Melissa, was eight months pregnant with their first child.  A similar bill (SB 2166) is set for a vote in the Senate next week.
