I don't condone 40 [[or even 35) in a 25 zone either. But this is another example of a problem that could be greatly reduced by more reasonable timing of traffic signals. Time the lights so one can make the greens at the speed limit, instead of 15 over.Why it maybe a understandable waste to ticket speeders on freeways for anything less than 15 over the limit, it's a different story on city streets. A friend of mine lost a child to someone speeding through his neighborhood, while there was no radar gun involved witness guessed his speed at 40 [[in a 25 zone). Wait until the state, counties and/or cities discover speeding and red light cameras. Then the heated arguments start.
While personally I don't believe in quotas I'm also a firm believer that if a driver doesn't speed and obeys traffic laws, that driver doesn't have to worry about quotas or even cameras.
Just my 2 cents.
