four companies that operate speed-cameras in Georgia have donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to state legislators.
Macon-Bibb County and the camera companies brought in $11.5 million from your school zone speed camera tickets since 2022.
A new provision in Ohio's proposed transportation budget would prohibit townships and counties from using speed cameras.
Ohio lawmakers want to change how traffic camera laws are enforced across Ohio.
A two-year, $11 billion transportation budget passed by the Ohio State House aims to eliminate handheld traffic cameras in townships.
If the budget is signed into law by the Ohio governor, places like Weathersfield, Liberty, and Vienna will no longer be permitted to use them for issuing tickets, a change that they believe will significantly strain police departments.
still loving this 72 Mach 1, from the same wonderful goofballs that made Scraptona. They found this Mach 1 had been stuck in a junkyard for 35 years

A group of U.S. Marines rescued a wounded civilian stranded without food and water in the middle of the California desert, waving a green flag from a boulder below, last month
“He had been out there for almost two days, completely out of water and food,” said Young. “When we reached him, he was conscious but clearly exhausted and in pain. He told us he had been hoping someone would see him before it was too late.”
The Marines stabilized the man’s injuries, loaded him into their King Stallion and flew him to the MCAS Yuma, Arizona, where the station’s Yuma Fire Department transported him to the Yuma Regional Medical Center. The man is expected to make a full recovery, according to the release.

the BYD Seagull is one specific model that the CEO of Ford has admitted he’s worried about from a competitive standpoint. It sells for $9,700 in China, and is already slated to be sold in Europe, and a cheaper variant is set to launch in the UK this year, too.
BYD is already enjoying success in the UK, with 62 dealers currently operating and 120 expected to be up and running by the end of 2025.
According to Autocar, the Seagull – which will be called the Dolphin Surf in Europe and the UK – will come equipped with more features and safety equipment in those parts of the world, but it will still be one of the cheapest EVs one can buy when it arrives there. BYD executive vice-president Stella Li said that while the Dolphin Surf might “not be the cheapest” EV one can buy in those markets, it will “be the best value,” with a rumored price tag of less than $25,937
