California City to Transform Red Light Cameras Into Spy Cameras
California City to Transform Red Light Cameras Into Spy Cameras:
*snip*
"Because California law currently forbids the use of red light cameras for spying, the proposed ordinance urged deletion of the following passage from the Vehicle Code Section 21455.5: 'Confidential information obtained from the Department of Motor Vehicles for the administration or enforcement of this article shall be held confidential, and may not be used for any other purpose.'
Oakland recommends this passage be replaced with, 'Photographic records may be used by law enforcement agencies for any law enforcement purpose.' One observer suggested Oakland's red light program may be a Trojan Horse. "

....while only miles away, in Sacramento.... we were sprayed with pesticides by crop dusters last night..... be docile citizen... These cameras were surveillance capable BEFORE they were installed
