[QUOTE="wornoutupser, post: 590440, member: 2196"] Upstate, I have to disagree with you on this one. Two nights ago it was raining hard and I was well below the limit in an empty package car. I approached an empty intersection and I was off the gas as the light went yellow. I started to brake (gently) and immediately began to slide. In the dim lights of this particular car you could not see the caked oil on the road. I went off the brake and countersteered through the empty intersection as the light went red. Any traffic camera would have nailed me going sideways through the intersection if it was there, but any officer observing would have seen what happened. I did the safest thing in an empty area and kept the vehicle straight. The cameras in my area of Florida have already generated millions in tickets and are being fought hard in court. The smaller cities are installing them in the name of profit only. [/QUOTE]
