&gt; Police higher-ups say the traffic unit has made Port Arthur a safer place to drive<p>They don&#x27;t show any data to back up this claim that they make throughout the story. IMO part of the problem is that the speed limits are far too low for modern vehicles. They keep them low so they can continue to collect.<p>It&#x27;s not about safety it&#x27;s about money. How is going around with plate readers making anyone safer? Unless they were using that technology to find a fugitive, but they&#x27;re not they&#x27;re using it to collect.
