Slowly starting to change the map to cover the entire Tri-Cities region and not just Johnson City.

This is hilarious.
A quote from Traffic camera bill takes wrong turn - Kingsport Times-News Online
A vote to ban the use of traffic-enforcement cameras in Tennessee failed Thursday in the House, but lawmakers did approve some restrictions before the legislation stalled amid controversies over other proposed changes. Lawmakers are expected to resume debate Monday.“As introduced, directs the comptroller to study traffic surveillance cameras, places a two-year moratorium on new cameras, and revises fines from traffic violations captured by such cameras.”
Currently “Placed Behind the Budget” as of 04/28/2010 and waiting on a vote on the Senate’s companion bill SB2918.
Got any info?
If you know of a camera being put up somewhere that isn’t on the map, or have a link to an interesting article, or just something else to say that might be of interest to anyone else regarding the camera… hit the submit link.
The first time I really started to give a rip about the traffic cameras popping up around Johnson City started a couple days ago and for two reasons.
- My fiance received a $100 citation from one in Kingsport.
- I was driving down Roan Street in Johnson City… already pissed that they’ve added yet another red light there… already with a sign stating Photo Enforcement.
Johnson City already have some helpful information about the cameras on their website, but I think a map is just more helpful. After some back and forth over Twitter, Brad took the initiative today to create the google map. Using info on the JC website I added some more of the points… and here you go.
On the Links page you’ll find pointers to official information from Johnson City as well as some links to articles about the cameras as I come across them.
