Does it still work?
I was driving home slowly yesterday in the maddening traffic and letting my mind wander. I started to think about the not so new traffic light cameras. You really haven’t heard much about them recently. Then I began to think about how they could work in the winter. I’m not a super tech geek, but I do know that sometimes electronics are slower to respond when the temperature drops. I was wondering if the cold weather affected our brand spankin’ new technology? I am assuming it isn’t, but wouldn’t it be funny if it was? A large portion of our year would render our cameras completely useless. It would seem like a thing government would do. I’m sure they are working just fine. I certainly don’t want to test them just to find out. Just a crazy thought process on my usually short trip home from work.
P.S. - Learn how to frickin’ drive, Minnesota.

I pass the one on the west end of downtown on Hennepin Ave on my way home from work every day. Almost without fail, I see that sucker go off. Seems to be working just fine despite the cold. oops. :)
