TAMPA - Cities across the nation are dipping their toes into the surveillance pool, using electronic eyes at troublesome intersections and snapping incriminating photos of red-light runners.

Hillsborough County wants to jump in, too, having identified several intersections that authorities say are perfect for such cameras.

What do you think of red-light cameras? Are they a deterrent to crime or an invasive spy tool? Share your thoughts here.

Cameras are a cheaper way to go when using security devices.  It is a better way to show tha person was exactly there and your able to catch more breaking the laws. Cheaper for our court systems and our Police forces. Less not- guilty pleas.
Anything to make it more efficient and cheaper for taxpayers let alone what it does for businesses on theft.
New Technology can make things cheaper and safer in the long run.

Not always.  But in this case, I think you may be right. 

Our roads are running in blood, and have been for decades.  We need to do something to stem the flow.  This is a good idea.

SH: Sure...all crime that ocurs within a few hundred feet of an equipped intersection.

Running red lights is not a crime, I do it everyday. I’ll stop if I know I’ll have to pay $$$$ for each one.

Actually, I myself have for years routinely failed to stop for left turn red lights when there’s absolutely no oncoming vehicles and when I’m confident I’m not being observed by a cop.

Usually it’s well after dark and more often after 10pm

You must be old.
Tell the truth.
Do you actually come to complete stop when turning right on a red light at intersections where it’s permitted? If you are one of the few, congratulations.
