Red Light Camera Bill

I just received this email today. Well if we can't get rid of the red light cameras, this would at least be a start to making them a little more fare.
Hi, just wanted you to be aware that a bill sponsored by Kenneth Dunkin,
5th district Representative, is in Rules committee now. It states that all intersections with red light cameras should have yellow lights lasting from 3 to 6 seconds. We know darn well Chicago has yellow lights at some of these intersections set for less than 3 seconds. Please write the Sponsor and the 5 Representatives on the Rules Committee for House Bill: HB3713 and encourage them to not delay this any longer and to quickly pass this to force Chicago to be decent about yellow light time settings.

Sponsor and representatives names are below and in attachment.

Thanks.

Class Action Lawsuit

I received this email today. I do not know anything about this person, but I figured I would share just in case anyone is interested.

I am beginning to recruit clients for a class action. I was hoping
you might include a link to a page on my website that explains how to contact
me.

The subject of the class action is proprietary at this point,
but I hope to file it within a month. I would be happy to update you on
the progress if you can assist me.

The webpage can be found at www.camerainfractions.com.

Thank
you.

New Cameras Added

After receiving an email, I just updated the website with 4 new locations.

There are now cameras at:
Central & Belmont
Cornell & 57th
Stony & 89th

There is one reported at Western & Addison, however the City of Chicago website doesn't list this one yet. I haven't confirmed it myself, but as soon as I get down that way, I'll send out an update.
