Chicago Speed Cameras Hit Snag

Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants to install speed cameras around Chicago but there’s a snag in his plan, says the Tribune. Due to a 38-year-old state law, in order to fine a driver for speeding in a school zone, a child must be present. That means the high tech cameras must get clear high-definition photos of both speeding cars and their license plates, and one of a child, “preferably in the same shot.”
