------------------------------------------ I AM NOT making this up, unfortunately. The news story contents may be bolluxed, of course, maybe they got it wrong. But this is what she said, no joking. O, and I think they're talking more about putting up cameras at some troubling intersections to take pictures of cars running red-lights. And cameras on transit vehicles (buses primarily). Gee, I am starting to feel so warm and safe!
