Reposted by Sonja BRE 🇨🇦 @hewer-of-code.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I had a similar thought about speed cameras. There seemed to be an implication that it was just too hard for motorists to know what the speed limit is, so it's not nice to ticket them for it. As a motorist, you're expected to know that. People who can't do it should have their licences taken away. 162
