Town of Newburgh

CAMERAS COULD CATCH SPEEDERS:

Before long, you might want to start smiling when you drive through the Town of Newburgh.

Because if officials there have their way, you'll be on camera.

The sprawling town wants to become the first place in New York state to install a photo radar system to nab speeders on its roads. It would post radars and cameras in a few spots to spy on lead-foot drivers. And if the camera catches you, expect a ticket in the mail.
...
Those fines can mean big money, and Jim Baxter, president of the National Motorists Association, says the cameras may do more for town coffers than town roads.

"There's no evidence it does anything to improve traffic safety," he said. "All it does is generate money."
