Stop Red Light Cameras in Albany

Join Campaign for Liberty to fight for a ban on these cameras.

Politicians in Albany are desperate to continue this money-grab on the backs of New York motorists. Rather than admitting Red Light Cameras are merely a way for the city government to cash in on unsuspecting citizens and visitors who are intimidated into waiving their rights, they could raise millions of dollars through the use of these cameras (and other nefarious "fees"), while bilking New Yorkers out of their hard-earned money.

Please sign the petition below and let the city of Albany know we will accept nothing less than a citywide ban on these cameras.

Whereas: Red Light Cameras are a direct violation of rights protected by the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution; and

Whereas: Evidence shows that Red Light Cameras would be used to generate funds and not to promote safety, as claimed by legislators and council members; and

Whereas: The city of Albany continues to seek avenues to fund their out-of-control spending rather than make necessary cuts; and

Whereas: Red Light Cameras are detrimental to safety, because they are placed in dangerous locations where signal timing has been altered to increase revenues; and

Whereas: Studies done in New York have shown that the use of Red Light Cameras increase accidents, contradicting the claims made by the private companies who operate them.

Therefore, be it resolved that we, the undersigned, urge you to introduce and support legislation that would fully ban the use of Unmanned Traffic Control Devices used to generate tickets, specifically Red Light Cameras, with no exceptions.
