I see nothing wrong with Sekou's answer. He's saying that the purpose should be public safety, not revenue generation. As much as I like the idea of a backdoor commuter tax, I think that speeding cameras should only be used to limit unsafe speeding, not speeding within social norms (say, 5 miles over the limit through green lights).

Look at North Capitol St. between Michigan Ave. and Fort Drive. That is a divided highway and yet we treat it as if it were a residential street with kids playing stickball.

This is not pandering to drivers -- I'm a cyclist and pedestrian more than a motorist. It's common sense.
