Red-light running

Redlight Who need cameras? Pasadena is tackling red-light runners the old-fashioned way:

Pasadena police will conduct a daylong red-light enforcement program Friday. The operation, which will run from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., will be held throughout the city, said Sgt. Chris Gutierrez of the Pasadena Police Department’s Traffic Section. "The program is an effective tool for achieving the Pasadena Police Department’s goal of reducing the number of traffic collisions in intersections resulting from red-light violations," Gutierrez said.

The only problem is cops can't watch for such @$$clowns 24/7 like cameras can, but it is good to see a municipality at least doing something to address this rapidly growing problem.
