At one point we had red light cameras in operation at two locations in Dublin. They were there on trial and 1,300 motorists were fined for breaking red lights while that happened. Then we switched them off. If we are seeking to eliminate bad behaviour on our roads and to protect people from injury or death, then changing the culture of road users is vitally important. That happens through changing hearts and minds and through enforcement. If we had a system in place in just two locations in Dublin city and managed to secure 1,300 prosecutions, why did we switch it off and when do we intend turning it back on again?
