You don't need red light cameras to create a short-yellow situation.
Actually, you need nothing at all when it gets down to it if the
municipality is that bent on illegal revenue.

Anyway, one major city is intalling these cameras at some bad
intersections and I be assured from both personal experience and
national writeups that they are needed. The motorists like to run the
lights. The intersections are rated among the top ten worst
_nationally_. The TV sitcom "Quints" had a piece using red-light
cameras.
