And what exactly is this "awesome point" you speak of? Dude ran a red light, got caught and fined for it. It's really not even all that funny. Traffic tickets are not paid at the police station, so it really doesn't make sense either.

And if you took the time to read one of the articles, you would know that the guy had to sit there and unfold all 137 of his little pigs before the collection agent would process the payment. He's more of a dumbass than a folk hero or instant celebrity. But good try.

I'm going to Rock Chalk a swan oragami.

That is pretty badass.

Generates right around $3 milli in Kansas City on an annual basis.

he had 3 arms and NO hands. Which makes it all the more impressive.

Not surprising, that’s what these things are for.
They’re installed with the expectation that they will generate X amount of revenue. If a particular intersection isn’t generating the revenue that was anticipated they will tweek the duration of the yellow light until they start getting the revenue that was expected.
Notice that some yellow lights have gotten to where they switch to red quicker? This would be why.

I noticed that right off the bat.

In OPKS, there's a light at 110th and Metcalf (east end) that changes so fast it's laughable.
You can be first in that line and still struggle to get across.

Over time people have learned you only get a ticket if you're not in the intersection when the light goes red.
That leads to people punching it through the yellow lights to clear an intersection. That doesn't spell "safer" to me.

They don't have the cameras here in town but they have been putting a lot of those timers on intersections so you know when it is going to turn yellow. They should be forced to put those timers into intersections where they have those cameras. It would help tremendously.

awesome

I would never suggest that someone vandalize the light to the point that it was destroyed or nonoperational.

bravo!

A can of clear coat over your plates will fix any red light camera issues you may have.

He should probably get used to traffic tickets.

Neckbeard spends 4+ hours making origami to prove a point, then is shamed by the teller and a cop and awkwardly has to unfold all of the money. What a dipshit.

Give me Bacon or give me death
